Stupid question alert!

Hi

I have recently started on my PPL. Had some lessons which were excellent. I was wondering - what is the 'whirring' noise in the cockpit when you switch the master switch on? Also you can hear it spooling down when you switch it off? Is this the vacuum unit or alternator?

Sorry if I sound a bit dim!
