How do speakers work with electricity to produce sound?
How do speakers work with electricity to produce sound?
- The electric signal directly generates sound waves through a special membrane
- The electric signal creates vibrations in the air, producing sound waves
- The electric signal becomes a magnetic force using a coil, which interacts with a powerful magnet attached to a diaphragm, creating sound (correct)
- The electric signal triggers a chemical reaction that produces sound
