More energy in, more energy out. Hitting something harder means that you are applying more energy in the 'hit'. Sound waves are a form of energy. So your hit might produce only louder sound, or you might break the object. Either way, the energy you put into the system comes out as sound and/or a broken object and/or some degree of heat.
