If the current is alternating, then it has the properties of a wave in the conductor, such as frequency, wavelength, amplitude, phase, group velocity etc.
Not a constant electric current but a changing one will generate electromagnetic waves.First: If you have a lone electron, and it is accelerated in any way, it will send off an electromagnetic wave. This is because a changing electric field generates a magnetic field.It is also true that changing magnetic field will generate an electric field. This is the reason that if you have an electric current, which is generating a magnetic field, and you change the current you generate an electromagnetic wave. To generate a continuous sinusoidal electromagnetic wave you continuously change the current sinusoidally.
Electric current
Sound waves are longitudinal waves. These would vibrate a diaphragm which has been attached with a coil kept in a magnetic field. As the coil vibrates then current is induced. This is how sound wave gets changed into electric current.
Well, when you transmit something as an electromagnetic wave, it is no longer an electric current, since an electromagnetic wave doesn't involve movement of charges. However, you can convert electrical energy into an electromagnetic wave, transfer that, and then convert it back to an electric current at the receiving end.

The voltage and current are delivered in a sine wave that goes positive and then negative at 60 cycles per second. Google sine wave to see what a sine wave looks like.

Yes, ear buds and headphones are miniature speakers.
electric wave
sound wave cannot produce magnetic field because magnetic field is created due to flow of electric currents sound is a mechanical wave, sound is produced due to vibration in a medium so sound wave cannot create electric current or magnetic field
No. An electromagnetic wave IS electric and magnetic fields.
Yes, an electric current is the flow of charged particles.
