Best Answer

Sound wave is essentially a pressure wave. What converts pressure wave to electricity is a piezoelectric element, basically a kind of vibrating membrane

Or arrange for the pressure vibrations to move a magnet within a coil, or move a coil over a magnet - the basis of all ancient microphones.

How does a waves energy move?

Mechanical waves, such as water and sound, convey energy via physical displacement of the medium, which creates and move potential energy along the direction of propagation. Electromagnetic waves convey energy directly in the coupled electric and magnetic wave itself.
