Final answer:

An electric guitar pickup converts string vibrations into electrical signals through induction and amplification.


Explanation:

An electric guitar pickup consists of thousands of turns of very fine wire around a permanent magnet, located below the guitar strings. When the metal strings vibrate, they distort the magnetic field, inducing a voltage in the coil as per Faraday's law.

This induced voltage is then amplified and sent to a speaker for sound output. The pickup essentially converts the string vibrations into electrical signals, which are the basis for producing music on an electric guitar.
