This image shows the workings of which type of microphone?

The image shows a dynamic microphone, which works through electromagnetic induction. In a dynamic microphone, sound waves cause the diaphragm to move, which in turn moves a coil of wire within the magnetic field of a magnet. This movement generates an electrical signal that corresponds to the sound. The visible components, such as the diaphragm, coil, and magnet, are characteristic of a dynamic microphone’s internal structure.

CTS Technology Specialist Reference

The CTS curriculum details the workings of various microphone types, explaining that dynamic microphones are durable and suitable for live sound due to their ability to handle high sound pressure levels.
