All musical instruments create sound by causing matter to vibrate. The vibrations start sound waves moving through the air. Most musical instruments use resonance to amplify the sound waves and make the sounds louder. Resonance occurs when an object vibrates in response to sound waves of a certain frequency.

How do musical instruments produce sound give example?
Musical instruments create sounds by making something vibrate. For example, guitars make sound when their strings vibrate. Most instruments are “tuned” to make a range of sounds of particular frequencies, which we call notes. These notes are made in a particular sequence to play a piece of music.
How do different instruments produce different sounds?
The reason the same musical note sounds different when played on various instruments is because the harmonic overtones and envelope of each instrument is unique. When a frequency is played, other frequencies, called harmonics, are created. Each instrument has a unique harmonic character.
What are three ways in which musical instruments produce sound waves?
Phew, simple! A musical instrument, in short, might itself vibrate, or have a part that vibrates, or amplifies and/or modifies another vibration.
What is this musical instrument we can use to produce sound?
Idiophones and membranophones
Idiophones are instruments whose bodies vibrate to produce sound. The class contains most of the pitched percussion instruments. These include instruments made of wood or other organic material, such as xylophones.
