The form of energy used to produce sound is mechanical energy. When an object vibrates, it transfers its mechanical energy to the surrounding air molecules, causing them to vibrate and produce sound waves.

Sound is produced through the conversion of mechanical energy into acoustic energy. Vibrating objects, such as vocal cords or speaker diaphragms, generate mechanical disturbances in a medium, causing molecules to compress and rarefy, propagating as sound waves. Thus, mechanical energy initiates the process of sound production.
