Why sound is produced when bell is struck with hammer?

Sound are produced by collition of molecules. When an object is beaten with bell. The molecule of metal bell moves and produces sound.


How does sound produced in school bell?

It is produced by soundwaves in the air, which are registered in the inner ear. The way a schoolbell produces these waves is when the "hammer" hits the metal of the bell, and makes the metal to vibrate, where the vibration or the waves get sent through the air molecyles.


How does sound energy of a bell work?

by the vibration of the whole bell , it makes a sound


Why does the sound stop when the ringing bell of the cycle is touched?

The ringing sound is created from vibrations of the bell. When you touch the bell, your fingers or hand dampens or stops the vibrations of the bell.


Experiment to demonstrate that sound need a material medium to propagate?

Take an electric bell and hang this bell inside an empty bell-jar fitted with a vacuum pump (as shown in the following figure). Initially, one can hear the sound of the ringing bell. Now, pump out some air from the bell-jar using the vacuum pump. It will be observed that the sound of the ringing bell decreases. If one keeps on pumping the air out of the bell-jar, then at one point, the glass-jar will be devoid of any air. At this moment, no sound can be heard from the ringing bell although one can see that the prong of the bell is still vibrating. When there is no air present inside, we can say that a vacuum is produced. Sound cannot travel through vacuum. This shows that sound needs a material medium for its propagation.
