    The material stretched across the drum vibrates to produce the sound waves.

    Explanation:

    A drum is one of the oldest musical instrument made by man. It is made of a hollow body over which a material such as skin is stretched. When a drum is struck with a stick, the material vibrates up and down. This makes the air above the drum to contract and relax rhythmically resulting in soundwaves. The soundwaves travel through air to reach our ears where they are heard.

    The quality of sound produced by a drum is affected by its shape. A larger drum produces a lower pitched sound.
