14. 14 Telephones -- The message travels through miles of wires as an electrical signal. microphone loudspeaker electrical signal

15. 15 Radio signal Mobile phones use radio Sound - electrical signal - radio signal - electrical signal - sound In one phone the sound is changed into an electrical signal then into a radio signal. Sound - electrical signal - radio signal - electrical signal - sound In the second phone the radio signal is changed into an electrical signal then into sound. Mobile phone beacons
