Electromagnetic waves do produce heat. It depends a bit on the frequency and of course the strength of them as to how much heat that is produced. It also depends on what medium the waves travel through.
Example:
A microwave oven heats up the food by interacting with water molecules, making them vibrate. This vibration causes friction and friction turns into heat. This is done via electromagnetic waves.
These waves are not absorbed by glass or pottery, hence they stay cold.

What is the transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves?
first of all electromagnetic waves are energy waves. and we call electromagnetic waves RADIATION.
Which item is not considered electromagnetic energy?
A piece of wood is not considered electromagnetic energy. Electromagnetic energy refers to the energy carried by electromagnetic waves, such as light, radio waves, and X-rays. Wood does not emit or interact with electromagnetic waves in the same way that energy does.
What type of energy are found in electromagnetic spectrum?
That energy is called "electromagnetic waves" or "electromagnetic energy".
What energy travels through space as RHythmic waves in a plant?
Photosynthesis is powered by light energy from the sun; and sunlight is a type of energy called electromagnetic energy or radiation. Electromagnetic energy travels in space as rhythmic waves.
What is the energy transferred as em waves?
EM waves or electromagnetic waves is radiant energy.
What is the transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves?
first of all electromagnetic waves are energy waves. and we call electromagnetic waves RADIATION.
What do electromagnetic waves do?
Electromagnetic waves transfer energy.
Energy that is transferred by electromagnetic waves is called electromagnetic what?
Energy transferred by electromagnetic waves is called radiation.
What is the reason for ultrasonic waves not being in the form of electromagnetic waves?
Ultrasonic waves are high frequency sonic waves. They're sound, which is mechanical energy. Electromagnetic waves are waves of electromagnetic energy, like radio waves or light. Mechanical energy is different from electromagnetic energy, hence the reason for ultrasonic waves not taking the form of electromagnetic waves.
The energy of visible light transported by electromagnetic waves are what type of waves?
electromagnetic waves are longitudinal (like a slinky).
What do waves carry as they move?
mechanical waves carry mechanical energy and electromagnetic waves carry electromagnetic energy.
Light energy travels in electromagnetic waves How do electromagnetic waves emit energy?
Through Radiation
What does Electromagnetic energy travels?
Electromagnetic energy travels in waves.
What type of energy are found in electromagnetic spectrum?
That energy is called "electromagnetic waves" or "electromagnetic energy".
Which item is not considered electromagnetic energy?

The transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves?
The waves that are the most infictint are the seismic waves
What kind of wave carries energy?
mechanical waves carry mechanical energy and electromagnetic waves carry electromagnetic energy.
