Sound -is- vibration. A 'body' totally motionless makes no noise. it is only the movement of the air - which is either moving due to the wind, or because something is passing on vibrations to it, that creates sound.
Our hearing can detect the rhythm of a vibrating substance and we interpret that as sound. Some sounds are beyond our range - either above or below the frequency we can detect.

How does sound occur?
the lenght of the wave is depending on the vibration.
What occurs in the eardrum?
Vibration from sound waves
What telephone changes sound vibration into electrical vibration?
If you excluded two tin cans with a string, alltelephones change sound vibrations into electrical vibrations.
Is it the speed or the size of the vibration that changes the pitch of a sound?
Neither. Speed of sound waves doesn't change unless there is a change in the medium (substance through which the wave moves). the size of the vibration determines how loud the sound is. the length of the vibration is what determines the pitch.
What is an auditory vibration?
An auditory vibration (aka acoustic wave or sound vibration) is when the tympanic membrane (eardrum) is hit by sound waves and vibrates. This vibration is picked up, amplified and transmitted through the middle ear by the ossicles. This vibration ends at the oval window since it changes to fluid vibration and ultiimately electrical energy in the inner ear.
Where do sounds come from?
it depends on how big or small the vibration is to determine the sound. The bigger the vibration, the lower the sound is. the smaller the vibration, the higher the sound.
How does a gong produce sound?
When you strike a gong, it makes a vibration. Sound = vibration.
What is the reflection of sound waves?
The reflection is vibration because sound is equal to vibration
WHAT IS THE Relationship between vibration and sound signals in telephone system?
sound is made from vibration
Does sound make vibration or does vibration make sound?
Vibrations cause sounds. A sound wave is the vibration of the air around whatever is "causing" the sound (aka, whatever is causing the vibration--a guitar string, vocal cords, the mechanics of a stereo, etc).
How does vibration cause sound wave?
Vibrations alter the density of the air (or other medium) around them. They do this as a wave. When the wave reaches a person's eardrum it makes it vibrate to the rhythm of the vibration. This is conducted to the brain via an electrical impulse and we hear it as sound.
How can you feel sound?
Sound is created by vibration
Does sound vibrate?
Yes, sound is a vibration
What is a form of sound?
Sound is a form of vibration.
What characteristic of sound is determined by frequency?
Vibration and rate of vibration.
How is vibration important to sound?
Think of it as a rubber band. No vibration, no sound. it's the same with a rubber band!
What are sound waves of irregular vibration in matter?
The sound waves of irregular vibration in matter is called noise.
