Best Answer

Movement produces all sounds.

When a diaphragm (membrane) or an object move at sufficient speed back and forth, then this will cause the pressure in the air to start decreasing and increasing. These pressure-shifts (commonly known as sound pressure waves) is interpreted by our ears as sound.

Pressure-shifts move in the air like ripples/waves in the water when you throw in a pebble.
