If understand your question correctly i think its just sound waves creating pressure in the air which vibrate the tiny bones in your inner ear which eventually reach the organ of corti where the vibrations are translated into sound.

What is the difference between sound frequency and intensity?
The frequency tells you the tone pitch, which is a measure of the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit time. It is also referred to as temporal frequency. The period is the duration of one cycle in a repeating event, so the period is the reciprocal of the frequency. The colloquial word intensity (energy) tells you the loudness of a sound. In reality is meant the sound pressure level SPL of the sound which is no energy.
What is the difference between stimulus frequency and stimulus strength?
<P> <P>The stimulus frequency is how often the stimulus is admitted. For example, every 30 seconds, every minute and 1/2, etc. <P>Stimulus strength describes the level of force used to administer the stimulus such as mild, moderate or maximum.</P>

What molecules enable us to hear sound?
The loudness of a sound depends on the intensity of the sound stimulus. A dynamite explosion is loader than that of a cap pistol because of the greater amount of air molecules the dynamite is capable of displacing. After the sound stimulus reaches our ears, it vibrates the eardrum and converts this into sound.
What is the purpose of classical condition?
The purpose it to associate an unconditioned stimulus (ex: sound of a bell) to a conditioned stimulus (ex: food) in order to get a conditioned response (ex: salivation) every time the subject being conditioned is exposed to the unconditioned stimulus (ex: sound of a bell creates salivation).

What is Acoustic Code in psychology?

How are stimulus and response related?
our senses will detect stimulus and send impulse into the integrating centre(brain) to interpret. the brain will produce appropriate response toward the stimulus to the effector. e.g when Telephone ring, the ears will detect the stimulus(sound) and the brain will produce the response to pick up the phone (copy from Yahoo answers)
