sound energy is caused by vibration.
That varies, depending on what causes the sound waves.
Sound energy can be sensed by the ears in science. Sound energy travels in the form of waves and causes the eardrums to vibrate, which our brains interpret as sound.
it is when two things collide and that is what causes interpretation energy
Mechanical Waves
A speaker is the device that converts electrical energy into sound energy. An electrical signal is sent to the speaker, which causes a diaphragm to vibrate and produce sound waves that we hear as sound.

When a source of energy causes a medium to vibrate, it creates sound waves. Sound waves are mechanical waves that travel through a medium by causing the particles of the medium to vibrate and transfer energy in the form of sound.
When sound is produced, there is a conversion of mechanical energy from the source (such as vocal cords vibrating or an instrument being played) into sound energy in the form of pressure waves in the air. This process involves the transfer of kinetic energy between the particles in the medium through which the sound travels.
1. sound energy incident on a panel causes the panel to vibrate (especially at resonant and coincident frequencies). sound energy -> mechanical energy 2. sound energy passing through an absorber will dissipate as heat. sound energy -> thermal energy
In a buzzer, electrical energy is transformed into sound energy. The electrical energy powers the electromagnet that causes a metal arm to vibrate rapidly, creating sound waves.
Sound energy causes the eardrum to vibrate. Sound waves travel through the air and when they reach the eardrum, the vibrations are converted into electrical signals that are sent to the brain for interpretation.
