Solution

The correct option is A True
  1. Sound is a form of energy which give us the sense of hearing. It requires a medium for propagation.
  2. Examples of such mediums are solids, liquids, and gases.
  3. Because the molecules of these mediums can carry the sound waves from one place to another.
  4. When a body vibrates, the medium around it also vibrates.
  5. The vibration helps the longitudinal sound waves to travel.
  6. This is due to the vibration of the molecules in the medium.
  7. So sound can only be produced by vibrating bodies.

Hence, the given statement is true.
