How does sound come off the xylophone?
Sound is produced by the vibrations created by objects. The wooden stick of the xylophone striking its metal part creates a vibration that produces the xylophone's sound.
What are the vibrations of particles or wave of vibrations spread to its source called?
Sound wave
How does a xylophone work and tell how its keys sounds differ from glasses with water in them at different levels?
The amount of water put in determines what the pitch/tone is. See, sound is made by vibrations. The amount of water put in adds dampening to the vibrations, making it deeper.The xylophone is a percussion instrument and it works when you tap it and when you hear a soud it's starting to get low and higher sounds.=)

What is a source of energy for a sound wave?

Can you play your ribs like a xylophone?
No, you cannot. In order for a xylophone to work, or any such percussion instrument, metal bars vibrate when struck, and the vibrations resonate to create the sound. The length of the bar determines the pitch of the sound. Your ribs, however, are made of softer material (hydroxyapaptite bone with marrow in between), and are bound to tendons and ligaments, and other such soft tissue, which would prevent the vibrations from resonating properly. So, at best, striking a bone within the body would create a thud sound, rather than the ping of a xylophone.
How does sound travel through a xylophone?
Sound travels through a xylophone when a mallet strikes the wooden or metal bars, causing them to vibrate. These vibrations create sound waves that travel through the air and reach our ears, allowing us to hear the musical notes being played.
What is the word origin for marimba?

What is an antonym for xylophone?
antonym of xylophone
Will a vibrating source always produce sound?
No, a vibrating source will only produce sound if the frequency of the vibrations falls within the audible range for humans, approximately 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Frequencies outside of this range will not be perceived as sound.
