GENERAL CLASSIFICATION

A telephone is a device that transforms voices into electrical signsls so that people can communicate over long distances.

DESCRIPTION

Telephone have a number of parts. On the outside of the handset there is a mouthpiece, an earpiece and a keypad. Inside the mouthpiece is a microphone which contains a plastic disk called diaphragm. The earpiece contains a loudspeaker.

People talk to each other on the telephone through the microphones in the handset. The sound of the caller’s voice causes the diaphragm to vibrate. As it vibrates, it generates an electric signal that passes down the telephone line to the receiving telephone. When the receiving telephone gets the signals, the diaphragm in the earpiece loudspeaker also vibrates and recreates the sound of the person’s voice at the other end.

There are many different kinds of phones. Most home and office phones have keypads and many are now portable. Mobile phones are not physically connected to a network and can be used from almost anywhere. Videophones, which contain a small TV camera, give users a chance to see each other.
