Answer 
Flutes have multiple holes to allow the player to produce different pitches and notes. Each hole can be covered or uncovered to change the length of the vibrating air column inside the flute, which in turn alters the pitch. By covering or uncovering specific combinations of holes, players can create a range of musical notes. The design and placement of the holes are carefully calculated to achieve accurate pitch control and facilitate playing melodies and scales.
