The voice from a person's mouth (air flow) vibrates a diaphram which translates the vibrations (mechanical energy) into electrical wave oscillations using an magnet and a coil. These electrical oscillations are superimposed on to a high frequency carrier wave and sent over physical wires, under sea cables, micro wave towers, satellites etc (purely electrical energy) and at the receiving end the carrier wave is removed and only the wave that was generated by the voice and hence the diaphram and hence the magnet and the coil is made to drive a coil over which is a diaphram which vibrates (mechanical energy) to reproduce the sound. Of late digital phones have come into the market but the basic principle is the same. Convert mechanical energy to electrical energy and then convert electrical energy to mechanical energy.

What energy conversion of telephone?

A telephone converts electrical energy into sound energy. When you speak into the telephone, your voice is converted into an electrical signal that travels through the phone lines. At the recipient's end, the electrical signal is converted back into sound waves, allowing the listener to hear your voice.
