Form of mechanical energy produced and transmitted by vibrating matter.
Produced
Sound
Frequency
Medium
The energy an object has due to its motion or position
Compression Waves
Substance
Amplitude
Mechanical Energy
Sound is produced by blowing air across the reed attached to the mouthpiece of the instrument, vibrating the air down the tube of the instrument to produce sounds

Also called Longitudinal waves;
Disturbance moving through a medium
Transmitting Waves
Conditional Waves
Trasnverse Waves
Compression Waves
A space without matter
Rarefaction
Medium
Vacuum
Compression
Rapid movement back & forth or up & down
Transmit
Vibrate
Transfer
Produce
The part of the sound wave where the particles are spread out

Amplitude
Created
Produced
Transmitted
Transferred
Substance
How high or low the sound is; determined by the frequency of a vibrating object
rarefaction
Trough
Amplitude
Pitch
Sound is produced from one or more vibrating strings. The three most common techniques to make the strings vibrate are plucking, bowing and strumming.
Stringed Instruments

Strike
Vibrate
Pitch
Sound
Sound is produced by a vibrating column of air inside the instrument. The player makes this column of air vibrate by buzzing the lips while blowing air through a cup or funnel shaped mouthpiece
