The radio converts EM waves through the Transmitter/Receiver. This works because if you pass a magnet over a wire it creates a small electric charge, all EM frequencies do the same so the T/R basically converts the pattern into a easily recognisable form such as voice.

∙ 11y agoAlthough you can look at it that way, I'm bothered by the concept that a radio 'converts'
the radio wave into anything.
The radio (and TV sets and GPS receivers and cellphones too) gathers the information
that is carried on the radio waves, and uses the information to construct a sound (or
a picture) that is a reasonably accurate copy of the original one.

What do am radios convert sound into?
AM transmitters convert sound into amplitude modulated radio waves which am radios convert into electrical pulses which speakers convert into air waves that are converted into sound by our eardrum.
Does mechinal waves have radio waves?
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
What is a radio wave?
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves. The radio waves have the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum. A radio wave has a much longer wavelength than does visible light. We use radio waves extensively for communications.
Was the radio named after radio waves or were radio waves named after the radio?
Radio waves were discovered before the radio was invented.
What do am radios convert sound into?
AM transmitters convert sound into amplitude modulated radio waves which am radios convert into electrical pulses which speakers convert into air waves that are converted into sound by our eardrum.
How do you convert radio waves into dc power?
Don't know the answer? Then you suck!
Does mechinal waves have radio waves?
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
Is a radio a sound energy?
A radio produces sound, and therefore sound energy. The radio waves, however, are electromagnetic energy, not sound. The function of a radio is to convert that electromagnetic energy into sound energy.
How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
Are radar waves visible?
No. Radar waves are one category of radio waves. Think of all the radio waves that are all around you right now . . . AM radio, FM radio, police and fire radio, highway patrol radio, taxi radio, television picture and sound radio waves, cellphone radio waves, garage-door-opener radio waves, bluetooth radio waves, WiFi waves, microwaves ... and you can't see any of them ! Radar waves can easily be there in the group.
How are radio and television waves added to em radio waves?
by changing the amplitude or frequency of the radio waves.
What radio waves?
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves occurring on the radio frequency portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
How are radio waves formed?
How are radio waves formed?
Are AM radio waves are an example of longitudinal waves?
No. Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic waves; electroctromagnetic waves are transverse waves.
When was Radio Waves - radio station - created?
Radio Waves - radio station - was created in 2010.
