yes. because you have to plug in the radio which is electrical and then when you
turn on the radio it produces sound. even if it's a battery powered radio, the battery
stores energy in the form of chemical energy, but delivers it as electrical energy, so
even in that radio, the radio is converting electrical energy to sound energy when
you turn on the radio.
What about an old-fashioned "crystal set" that has no battery and doesn't plug into
the wall ? Even that one converts electrical energy into sound. The only electrical
energy it ever gets is what it picks out of the air that got transmitted from the radio
station. That's very very little energy, which is why the sound from a crystal set is
always so weak.
For radio broadcasting, sound waves are converted to electrical waves that are further transmitted. This transformation is done by a device called a transducer, which converts physical parameters into an electrical form (signals).
Microphone converts sound energy to electrical energy.
-- An LED converts electrical energy to light energy. -- A coffee percolator converts electrical energy to heat energy. -- An old-fashioned light bulb converts electrical energy to light energy and heat energy, both at the same time. -- A loudspeaker or ear-bud converts electrical energy to sound energy. -- An electric motor converts electrical energy to kinetic energy. -- A radio transmitter converts electrical energy to low-frequency electromagnetic energy. -- A battery sitting in its charger converts electrical energy to chemical energy.
Loudspeakers and earphones convert electrical energy to sound energy. LCD monitors, plasma screens, and CRTs make images out of electrical signals.
Mechanical and sound energy.
microphone
"speaker"
It converts electrical energy to sound energy.
A microphone is a transducer - meaning it converts sound in a physical space into electrical energy displayed by a waveform. A speaker does the opposite: It converts electrical energy into a physical sound.
