Sound waves are not converted into radio waves. First sound waves are changed into electrical signal using a microphone. Then this mild signal is amplified. Now a high frequency radio wave is modulated with this amplified signal. This modulated radio wave is then propagated through space.

In most devices, including headphones, earphones, radios, televisions and computers, electrical energy is transformed to sound energy by an electrodynamic loudspeaker. A speaker consists of a coil of wire suspended in a magnetic field. Changes in the current in the wire cause motion of the coil--the same principle of conversion of electrical to mechanical energy first demonstrated by Michael Faraday in 1821. The electrodynamic loudspeaker is actually a specialized form of electric motor. Like other electric motors, an electrodynamic loudspeaker can be also used in reverse--as a generator--to transform sound energy into electrical energy.

Electrical - Sound energy?

It used the electrical energy to amplify the radio signal. - that is an electromagnetic wave.

electrical to sound (and light as well, but only for the tv unless your radio lights up when plugged in) :)
