Default weird noise coming from under dash

when i start my car up this whinning noise comes on, but goes away as soon as i come to a stop, seems to quiet down as soon as i touch the brakes, but never comes back after that, any ideas? i don't think its anything to worry about, i hope, just a little curious what it might be

the sound is only there for like 5 minutes, seems to be affected by the brakes cause whenever i step on the pedal it quiets down, and goes away afterwards, seems to only happen when engine is cold

and the sound isn't like air escaping, more like an electric motor vibrating sound, i'm gonna hve my battery tested, cause sometimes it takes a few turns to start the car, maybe there is something under there trying to draw some power but the battery is to weak,
