The video tutorial explores the concept of sound as a form of energy. It includes two activities: one using a beaker, balloon, and sand to demonstrate how sound causes sand particles to move, and another using a drum and a cup of water to show how sound creates ripples. These activities illustrate that sound has the power to cause physical changes, confirming that it is indeed a form of energy.
