Sound is a vibration of air molecules, at a frequency we can hear.
The air is set into vibration by something else that is vibrating; the vocal chords, the violin string, the drum diaphragm, the falling water, the falling tree.

What is sound source?
sound sources are a different type of music for example voice is one so a sound of source is anything that makes sound also there are lot's of different sound sources in this world
Whenever a source of sound moves the frequency heard by the observer is Less than that of the source?
To be more specific, a sound source moving toward you will appear to emit a sound of higher frequency than actual. Conversely, a sound source moving away from you will appear to emit a sound of lower frequency than actual. See "the Doppler effect."
What happens when the pitch of a sound seems to changeas the sound source moves toward an observer?
In that situation, what happens is that the pitch of sound seems to change as the sound source moves radially with respect to the observer. When the source approaches the observer, the pitch rises, whereas if the source should recede, then the pitch would fall.
Will a vibrating source always produce sound?
Sound is sensed only when vibrations produced by a source is transferred to the ear drum by means of a material medium. If such a medium is absent then sound cannot be heard. But vibrations of the source are always there.
Can an electric current produce sound?
the only sound is from the power source
Is a siren a sound source or a sound reciver?
A siren makes a sound and that's why it must be a sound source.
What is the source of energy for a sound wave?
The source of energy for sound waves are vibrations.
What is a source of energy for a sound wave?
The source of energy for sound waves are vibrations.
What are the differences of sound and water waves in terms of source?
Sound and water waves differ in one main way in terms of source, although they are very alike. Sound waves are generated by a verifiable sound source, such as vibration.
Is it true that how fast a sound source vibrates affects the pitch of the sound?
Yes, it is true that the faster a sound source vibrates the higher the pitch.
Is it possible to move a source of sound relative to a stationary observer so that there is no shift in the frequency of the sound?
For the sound from a source not to be shift in frequency , the radial velocity of the source to the observer must be zero : that is the source must not be moving towards or away from the observer

What does diegetic sound mean?
Diegetic sound can be on screen or off screen. It is a sound whose source is shown on the screen or whose source is implied to be there by the action of the film.
What happens when the pitch of a sound seems to changeas the sound source moves toward an observer?
In that situation, what happens is that the pitch of sound seems to change as the sound source moves radially with respect to the observer. When the source approaches the observer, the pitch rises, whereas if the source should recede, then the pitch would fall.
