Why does my macbook whine, but stops when I scroll or press a key on the keyboard?

Ok, I have a black macbook from about a year ago, and I don’t know when this started, but there is this weird whine coming from it. The weird part of it is that it stops when a button on the keyboard is being pushed, and when I am scrolling. Only scrolling, with two fingers, never when just moving the mouse or clicking. Its just weird and extremely irritating. Any input on the subject would be great.

    Take it to your nearest Apple store and get them to check it - it should still be under warranty if you have Apple Care.
