What determines "loudness"? The number of hair cells that are stimulated. The wave frequency or number of vibrations per second. O As the noise gets louder, the auditory (Eustachian) tube expands. O As the fluid in the cochlea vibrates with more force, the basilar membrane moves with greater force.
