प्रश्न
Describe the energy changes which take place in a radio.
उत्तर
A radio converts electrical energy into sound energy. In a radio set, electrical energy causes the speaker’s diaphragm to vibrate and produce sound. So, the radio converts electrical energy into kinetic energy and finally into sound energy. This energy transformation can be written as,
Electrical energy → Kinetic energy → Sound energy
