Question

Identify the part which vibrates to produce sound in the following instruments.​

A. Dholak	P. Air column
B. Sitar	Q. Membrane
C. Flute	R. Strings

Answer 1

A dholak is similar to a drum so if we hit it the membrane will vibrate and produce sound. Hence the membrane is the vibrating material in dholak.

A sitar is similar to a harp so if we pluck the string it vibrates to produce the sound. Hence strings are vibrating objects in sitar.

A flute is similar to the clarinet and is also a pipe-shaped instrument. So if we blow air into the pipe, the air column will vibrate and produce sounds. Hence air column is the vibrating object in the flute.

So, the correct answer is:

A. Dholak	Q. Membrane
B. Sitar	R. Strings
C. Flute	P. Air column
