Many of fresh engineer from school or those have not got chance to commission, start-up and operate a plant, you may aware of pump cavitation but have no idea how pump cavitation looks and sound like.
What's Cavitation ?
Cavitation is the formation and collapse of vapor bubbles in a liquid. Bubble formation occurs at a point where the fluid operating pressure is lower than fluid vapor pressure, and bubble collapse or implosion occurs at a point where the pressure is increased to the vapor pressure.

Pump Cavitation Sound like...
The following is a video clip showing a centrifugal pump running with pump caviation. You may hear how the sound like when a pump is experiencing cavitation. Whenever you heard similar kind of sound "Ke-tuk-Ke-tuk..." in your pump, you may take action on it...

The following two videos basically let you view cavitation occur at impeller.
