The 14 pages that link to Impedance matching, each with the reason it gives.
Radio transmitterRelated: Matching the transmitter output to the antenna reduces reflected power.
LC circuitRelated: Resonant networks can transform impedance across a selected frequency range.
OhmRelated: Matching often requires comparing impedances expressed in ohms.
HeadphonesRelated: Headphone impedance affects how well an amplifier can drive them.
EardrumRelated: The eardrum and ossicles help transfer sound energy from air into cochlear fluid.
