When a telephone rings, an electrical signal is sent from the telephone system to the phone, causing the phone's speaker to vibrate and create sound waves. These sound waves travel through the air to reach your ear. Once the sound waves reach your ear, they are converted into electrical signals by your ear's auditory system, allowing you to perceive the ringing sound.
