How does a rubber band stretched between two fingers make a sound?

When you stretch the rubber band it creates tension that is transferred into kinetic energy when you release it and so it moves and in moving it moves in turn the air around it and the air vibrates your ear drum creating a noise (it is a higher pitch if it is tighter because the rubber band is more tense so it moves the air faster thus the higher sound)

How can you make a streched rubber band produce a softhigh-pitched sound?
One can produce a soft, high-pitched sound from a stretched rubber band by snapping it. It is easier to accomplish this if the band is stretched very tightly.
How is sound produced from a tympani?
The stretched membrane on the timpani vibrates when it is struck which makes sound.
What are some possible options for sound insulation between walls?
Some possible options for sound insulation between walls are the use of the following sound proof materials; sound insulation wall layer, curtain walling, the soni protector sound proofing panels, foam and sound proof rubber.

Why does a rubber band make sound energy when it vibrates?
The oscillation of the rubber as it vibrates - forces the air around it to vibrate also. This is the sound we hear.

Chordophone
What is it called when a sound wave is stretched out?
A stretched-out area of a wave is called a rarefaction.
How are the sounds different from other birds?
When you hear a high sound the vibrations are moving very fast. When you hear a low should, the vibrations are moving slowly. You can test this experiment if you use a bowl and some rubber bands. Strap some of the rubber bands around the bowl in different places. when the rubber band is stretched longest (in the middle of the bowl) it is tighter when you strum it than in other places. This means the frequency is higher than in lower places. Band stretched tight = Faster vibrations = Higher sound Band stretched loosely = Slower vibrations = Lower sound
How will a sound of thick rubber band and thin rubber band sound what is the difference?

What is a scientific name for a guitar?

What Is the classification for an instrument that produces sound by vibrating a string or strings stretched between two point?
That would be a stringed instrument.
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!
