What is sound?
Sounds are caused by vibrating objects. The string of a guitar, the skin of the drum and tuning
fork vibrate to produce sound.
Turning fork vibration Plucking the guitar

These sound waves are created by the vibration of some object, like a
radio loudspeaker.
Its vibrating diaphragm will caused a series of compression (region ofincreased pressure) and rarefaction (region of decreased pressure)travel through the air away from the loudspeaker.
The resulting succession of compression and rarefaction constitutes the
sound waves. The waves are detected when they cause a detector to vibrate.
Your eardrum vibrates from sound waves to allow you to sense them.

Describe sound wave
Is a longitudinal wave in nature because
the air molecules vibrate in the direction
which is parallel to the propagation
Needs a medium to propagate.

Amplitude and Frequency of Sound
Waves
The amplitude of sound waves depends on its
loudness.
The louder the sound, the
bigger is its amplitude.
The slower the sound, the
smaller is its amplitude.

The frequency of sound waves depends
on its pitch.
The higher the pitch of the sound, the
higher its frequency.
