If a physical is an instance of earphone,
then the physical has the purpose there exist an entity, another entity,, , a third entity,, , a fourth entity and a fifth entity such that the entity is an instance of electrical signalling and the third entity is a patient of the entity and the entity ends up at the physical and the fifth entity is an instance of process and the physical is an instrument for the fifth entity and the third entity is a patient of the fifth entity and the other entity is a result of the fifth entity and the other entity is an instance of radiating sound and the other entity originates at the physical and the beginning of the time of existence of the entity happens before the beginning of the time of existence of the fifth entity and the beginning of the time of existence of the fifth entity happens before the beginning of the time of existence of the other entity and the fourth entity is an instance of ear and the physical is adjacent to the fourth entity
