light waves are electromagnetic
Non mechanical waves are Eletro magnetic waves. We can devide 2 waves. 1 is mechanical waves & 2 is electromagnetic waves. For example Sound is a mechanical wave & Light is an electromagnetic wave.
maybe? ----- No, you are forgetting about electromagnetic radiation such as a light, radio, x-rays, and so on that also have wave properties. Mechanical waves are able to travel through matter but electromagnetic waves can travel in a vacuum.
Mechanical waves require a medium to travel, where electromagnetic waves do not.
No, they are mechanical waves.
Mechanical waves, like sound waves, seismic waves, and ocean waves, do. Electromagnetic waves, like radio, light, and X-rays, do not.
No. They're electromagnetic waves.

Electromagnetic waves
mechanical waves need a medium to travel through, electromagnetic waves do not. Electromagnetic waves can travel through space, mechanical waves can not.:PElectromagnetic waves do not require a medium, but mechanical waves do.
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.

Mechanical waves require a medium to travel, where electromagnetic waves do not.
The biggest difference is that mechanical waves require a medium to travel through and electromagnetic waves do not.
