Loudspeaker

A

AC electrical signals from amplifier fed into the coil of wire in speaker which is wrapped around base of cone

Coil surrounded by permanent magnet signals due to the interaction of the two Magnetic Fields causes a force moves back and forth

Movements make phone vibrate creates sound
