Question

How does a phone work...?

Answer 1

Well you plug your phone into the phone socket (or outlet diffrent countrys have diffrent names), then the phone socket it connected to the phone line, the phone line is connected to either a pole, or a green box at the end of the street, then from there its connected to the local exchange, then from the local exchange to the city exchange, then from there to the main exchange (unless your in the main city then your connected to the city exchange), then when you pick up the phone and dial a number if its a local number (e.g your mate down the street or around the corner), then your call will go through the local exchange and to their phone, if its someone say that lives in another city altogether like london, you phone their number, it will go throuhg your local exchange, then to the city exchange, then the main exchange, then to the local exchange of the person your phoning lives, if your ringing a mobile then the same goes local exchange > city exchange > main exchange > mobile exchange > the mass of were the mobile you are phoning is. If you phoning an international number its then Your local exchange > city exchange > main exchange > international exchange (the main exchange of the country your phoning) > City exchange of the person your ringing > then the local exchange of the person your ringing.
