Inside a stereo speaker you will find two permanent magnets one on the cone and one near the cone?

The permanent magnets in a stereo speaker are used to create a magnetic field that interacts with the electrical current flowing through the voice coil attached to the speaker cone. This interaction causes the voice coil to move back and forth, pushing and pulling the cone to produce sound waves. The permanent magnet near the cone provides a stationary magnetic field, while the magnet on the cone moves with it to drive the sound production.

The parasitic cone volcanos are similar to the cinder cones, however, the volcano is found on the flanks of other volcanos, hence, the name. It is created by flank eruptions of larger volcanos.
