Answer:- School bell starts vibrating when heated which creates compression and rarefaction in air and sound is produced.

Answer:- School bell starts vibrating when heated which creates compression and rarefaction in air and sound is produced. Sound How does the sound produced by a vibrating object in a medium reach your ear? - Vibrations in an object create disturbance in the medium and consequently compressions and rarefactions. Because of
