Assuming the ear canal is clear of cerumen and other objects, what should you be able to observe during otoscopy with the speculum in the ear canal?

Why do we need to measure sound pressure with RMS (root-mean-square), rather than just use the average?

For each ear/transducer, list the frequencies that need to be masked. Enter the numbers without commas or units. For example, if the ear/transducer requires masking at 500, 1000, and 2000 Hz, in the text box enter: 500 1000 2000. If no frequencies need to be masked, write “none”. Assume air conduction thresholds were obtained with supra-aural headphones.
