  • The higher you are, the faster your freefall speed is. Your speed slows down as you reach denser air.
  • The aircraft also climbs faster when the air is colder and therefore at a lower pressure.
  • If you have blocked ears (i.e. because you have a cold), you can get pain in them as it is hard for you to equalise.
  • In terms of mental pressure, e.g. in a competition, pressure can make you give a bad performance when being judged.

Does an industrial piercing affect certain pressure points?

No. The pressure point in that area is actually pretty far behind your ear, so having an industrial will not affect it.


How do loud sounds affect the ear drum?

Your ear drum senses vibrations, those vibrations are sounds you hear. If we did not have our ear drums sound would simple float through it. If you bust your ear drum you will lose your hearing. Does that answer you question?


What causes pressure in the forehead and nose and dizziness?

Sinus congestion ( Rhinosinusitus ) or upper respiratory infection. Your sinuses are filled with mucus causing pressure and it is into your Eustation tubes and inner ear so it is affecting your balance. ( Pressure in the inner ear can rupture the eardrum.) See a Physician for decongestants and antibiotics, keeping an infection too long can affect long term hearing once it has entered the passages of the ear.


Why might your ear or ears hurt?

I assume you mean inside the ear canal. There are several common reasons, some that affect children more than adults, and some that can affect any age group.The ear connects with the Eustachian tube which goes down the side of your neck. Many ear pain problems comes from a temporary blocking of the Eustachian tube.When ear wax builds up it can block the drainage from going down the Eustachian tube. (any age)Allergies can change the pressure between the ear and Eustachian tube and block the tube. (any age)Chewing gum can make the ears pop and change the pressure between the ear and Eustachian tube. (any age)Grinding your teeth at night can change the pressure between the ear and Eustachian tube. (any age)A change in air pressure, like being in an airplane, can change the pressure between the ear and Eustachian tube. (any age)Ear infections! - especially young children - usually occurs with Strep ThroatStrep Throat or other throat infection - see #6


Is the ear only function for hearing?

The Eustachian Tube, part of the ear, provides a connection between the middle ear and the mouth. This permits equalization of the air pressure in the middle ear with the pressure in the surrounding environment and prevents the problems and pain associated with excess pressure on the ear drum.Yes. Your ear has got the balancing apparatus located in the inner ear.


In which part of the ear does pressure need to be equalized when changing altitude or scuba diving?

The part of the ear that needs to be equalized during diving is called the Middle ear. The pressure in the outer ear will change with the pressure in the water you are diving through. Between the outer ear and the middle ear is the Tympanic Membrane, or "Eardrum", which will bend, when pressure in the outer ear and the middle ear isn't equal, causing umpleasantness or pain. This is countered by blowing air into the middle ear by what's called the Eustachian Tubes. By blowing extra air into the middle ear, the pressure inside the middle ear will increase, and since the Eardrum is the only flexible part of the middle ear, the increased pressure inside the middle ear, will cause the Eardrum to bend back to its original position. Hence, equalization...

The ear is a biomechanical transducer which converts air pressure in to an electrical signal which the brain interprets as sound.


What is normal for children's ear pressure?

The normal ear pressure should be between plus 50 and negative 150 decapascals. These results mean that there is no fluid present in the ear.
