    Have you ever felt the
    Think About It! vibrations from a speaker while
    playing music?

    How do these vibrations


    change as you turn the volume
    up and down?
    How is
    a sound
    made?
    Sound is produced by
    vibrations.

    Notice how a speaker vibrates


    as music plays from it. This
    makes the air around it move
    and bump into each other.
    How do
    we hear
    sounds?
    When the back and
    forth movement of
    particles reaches our
    ears, they cause our
    eardrums to vibrate.

    As a result, part of our inner


    ear also vibrates. Our brain
    then detects this as sound.
    Which of these
    produces a high
    sound? How about
    a low sound?
