Question

How is sound produced and how is it transmitted and heard by us?

Answer 1

Sound is produced when any object starts vibrating by any means.

These vibrations travel from the source all around the environment through the particles of the environment; thus, it reaches its destination, i.e., our ear.

Now, it enters our ear and travels down a canal, at the end of which a thin membrane is stretched tightly, known as the eardrum. The eardrum sends vibrations to the inner part of the ear and finally reaches the brain and we hear the sounds.
