Using Sound

Question 8 • Fall 24 GSE Physical Science B IC

Which best describes the way a sound wave is sent through the radio?

Answer
A
sound wave → radio wave
B
radio wave → sound wave
C
radio wave → sound wave → electrical signal → sound wave
D
sound wave → electrical signal → radio wave → sound wave

Explanation

A microphone first converts the sound wave into an electrical signal. The radio transmitter sends information about that signal as a radio wave, and the receiver converts it back into an electrical signal that drives a speaker to produce sound. So the overall sequence is sound wave → electrical signal → radio wave → sound wave, choice D.
