A cardboard is a moving part of the given hand made microphone. When a sound wave strikes the diaphragm (cardboard in the following experiment) of the microphone‚ the diaphragm vibrates back and forth‚ and the attached coil moves along with it. Additionally‚ magnet is attached with coils on a cardboard. When the coil alternately approaches and move back from the magnet‚ the flux through the coil changes. As a result of this‚ an ac emf is induced in the coil. Next‚ this electrical signal is sent to
