Question

How does the sound from different musical instruments reach our ears?

Short Answer

Solution

When musical instruments vibrate, they disturb the surrounding air molecules. This disturbance travels through the air medium as a longitudinal wave, consisting of compressions and rarefactions. The sound energy is passed from one air particle to the next until it reaches our ears, enabling us to hear it.
