What two types of energy does the sound of bass drum?

What is vibrating on a drum to cause sound?

The drum head(s). On a snare drum, the "snare" is a set of metal wires that strap onto the bottom head and vibrate against it as it vibrates in response to the striking of the top head, creating the characteristic snare drum sound.


Which two types of energy does the sound of a bass drum come?

The sound of a bass drum primarily comes from mechanical energy and sound energy. When the drummer strikes the drumhead, mechanical energy is transferred to the drum, causing it to vibrate. These vibrations then produce sound energy, which travels through the air as sound waves.


What vibrates as sound waves hit it?

Your eardrums vibrate when sound waves hit them. The sound wave travels through the auditory canal which funnels the sound to the ear drum causing it to vibrate. The ear drum then amplifies the sound by vibration of bones. It is in the middle ear where sound energy is converted into mechanical energy. The cochlea in the inner ear converts the vibrations into electrical impulses before sending signals to the brain. The brain then interprets the impulses as sound.
