We generally think of radio waves (radio electromagnetic radiation) as those frequencies of electromagnetic (EM) radiation that fall within a band of frequencies below those of light. These include microwave bands, on which satellites communicate and cell phone operate, as well as the familiar microwave oven. Radar also operates in this band. Below that we find television signals, as well as some two-way radio signals. Other forms of communications radio signals (like amateur or "ham" radio) as well as broadcast radio operate below the television bands.
By considering the types of equipment mentioned above, it is possible to make a list of some sources of radio electromagnetic radiation.
When an electric charge accelerates, electromagnetic radiation (a radio wave) is produced.
Radio transmitters produce a radio frequency alternating current fed into an antenna. This causes the electrons in the antenna to accelerate alternately in one direction and then the other. This produces the radio waves. Any wire will work as an antenna but for best efficiency, the wire is often half a wavelength long or a multiple of half wavelengths.
In nature, there are many sources of accelerating charge. In all cases, radio waves result. These include lightning strikes and the atmospheres of stars and planets.
The sun and other really crazy high energy objects in outer space.
radio waves are cased when YOU have ur phone in your pocket.
The source is the RF current in the transmitting antenna.
Radio waves.
they use radio waves to pick up some what satellite images or existance of things in space
Radio waves are in all parts of the atmosphere. Some, but not all, radio waves are reflected from the ionosphere, permitting transmission over greater distances.
for wavelength, the longer of the two is visible light, but the longest type of rays are radio waves (some of them have a wavelength as long as a football field)
'Radio' waves are physically and electrically identical to light waves except for their frequency (wavelength), and they travel at the same speed as light does.
Radio waves aren't harmful at its usual pattern of operation. They are harmful only when a strong signal is close to a person. It can cause cancer and other problems. Radio waves may also cure. All waves have different results.
Radio Waves can cause radiation. :(

False. For some bands of radio waves the atmosphere is transparent. Radio waves can penetrate to the ground. That's why we have radio telescopes on the Earth.
ELF radio waves or extremely low frequency radio waves. These may have frequencies below 1 Hz in some cases!
Natural sources for americium doesn't exist.

radio waves, microwaves, visible light, and x-rays
Water is not a wave. Waves on a water surface, on the other hand, do indeed have similarities with other types of waves in physics, including radio waves.

radio waves can range from the size of a football feild to the size of a football! its a true fact i have always found pretty cool.
