Answer: A

Causing air molecules to vibrate

Explanation:

Sound is made by vibrations. And it is an energy. When any object vibrates, it causes movement in the air particles. These particles bump into the particles close to them, which makes them vibrate too causing them to bump into more air particles. This movement, called sound waves, keeps going until they run out of energy.

What is the SI unit for kinetic energy
trapecia [35]
The easiest way to build a unit for energy is to remember that
'work' is energy, and  
                                       Work = (force) x (distance).

So energy is                   (unit of force) x (unit of distance)

                   [Energy]  =       (Newton)            (meter) .

'Newton' itself is a combination of base units, so
energy is really
                             (kilogram-meter/sec²)      (meter)

                       =           kilogram-meter² / sec² .

That unit is so complicated that it's been given a special,
shorter name:
                                       Joule .

It doesn't matter what kind of energy you're talking about.
Kinetic, potential, nuclear, electromagnetic, food, chemical,
muscle, wind, solar, steam ... they all boil down to Joules.

And if you generate, use, transfer, or consume 1 Joule of
energy every second, then we say that the 'power' is '1 watt'.
