उत्तर
Sound is produced when a body vibrates. In other words, each source of sound is a vibrating body. This can be demonstrated by the following experiment.
Take a ruler. Press its one end on the table with the left hand as shown in figure. Pull down the other end of the ruler with the right hand and then leave it.
You will notice that the ruler vibrates i.e., the ruler moves to and fro and a humming sound is heard.
After some time, the ruler stops vibrating. No sound is then heard.
This shows that humming sound is produced only because of the vibration of the ruler.
