Could WHAT be predicted? Please clarify.
No, not in general. It is rather the other way around. Infrared radiation is electromagnetic radiation, and electromagnetic radiation spans multiple types of radiation, from microwaves, light, infrared, ultraviolet, radio, and more. So electromagnetic radiation could be infrared, but that is just one type of electromagnetic radiation
Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is the oscillation and movement of magnetic and electric fields which are perpendicular to each other. This is the way in which electromagnetic radiation is propagated. Photons are another term for higher energy EMR, and it could also be argued that photons make up some forms of electromagnetic radiation.
Heat waves traveling at the speed of light are called RADIATION! :)
Wow, that's both an easy question as well as difficult to answer. In layman's terms, electromagnetic radiation could be categorized as any magnetic field created by electrical or electronic means. For example, a transmitted radio signal, TV signal or satellite signal consists of electromagnetic radiation, but then so does the field created by the coils in a transformer, motor or generator.
Not exactly. Actually, no. Photons are chunks of electromagnetic waves. As such, they do not produce EM waves, they ARE those waves. A photon inter-acting with some other particle could result in other photons -- ie, a different kind of EM wave -- being created.
As soon as James Clerk-Maxwell developed the math that predicted the existence of electromagnetic radiation, he suggested that light could be one of its forms.

ultraviolet :)
It's the emission of electromagnetic energy from something, not the transfer. That em-radiation could travel for ever across the universe, never interacting with anything ever again and it would still be radiation.________________________________________________________Not all radiation is electromagnetic engery. Electromagnetic energy is transfered by way of photons. Photons are emited through gamma radiation and black body radiation. Nuclear decay of alpha particles and beta particles (which are also considered radiations) are actual particles that have mass, and are not electromagnetic radiation.

inferred rays
Yes, radiation is energy that is transmitted from one place to another by electromagnetic waves...hope i could help :)
what is a form of energy that travels as waves through the air and some solids and liquids call?
I believe electromagnetic-a form of radiation.

Technically, yes. A laser is a concentrated beam of monochromatic (usually) light. Given that light itself is considered to be part of the electromagnetic spectrum and that that spectrum is referred to as electromagnetic radiation (as it doesn't need a medium to travel through) then one could deduce that a laser beam is radiation. In addition, gamma radiation also forms part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
When we use the term "radiation" as regards energy, probably the first thing that comes to mind is electromagnetic energy. Electromagnetic (EM) energy is often called electromagnetic radiation. We know that this could be radio waves, microwave energy, infrared light, light from the visual spectrum, ultraviolet light, X-rays or gamma rays. All of these are forms of electromagnetic radiation, and a link can be found below for more information.Radiant energy.
