What does air have to do to produce sound?
A
Spin
B
Rotate
C
Nothing?
D
Vibrate
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -When an object vibrates, it causes movement in surrounding air molecules. These molecules bump into the molecules close to them, causing them to vibrate as well. This makes them bump into more nearby air molecules. This “chain reaction” movement, called sound waves, keeps going until the molecules run out of energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sound waves are produced by a vibrating body. The vibrating object moves in one direction and compresses the air directly in front of it. As the vibrating object moves in the opposite direction, the pressure on the air is lessened so that an expansion, or rarefaction, of air molecules occurs.

Detailed explanation-3: -When an object vibrates, it forces the neighbouring particles of the medium to vibrate. These vibrating particles then force the particles adjacent to them to vibrate. In this way vibrations produced by an object are transferred till it reaches the ear.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sound can’t be carried in the empty vacuum of space because sound waves need a medium to vibrate through such as air or water.
