The stick delivers a rapid contact force to the drumhead, changing their momenta.
The drumhead pushes back equally and oppositely (Newton's third law), producing vibrations that make sound.
The millisecond force waveform — its impulse — determines the momentum transfer and how energy is split between vibration (sound) and stick rebound.
