Microwaves ARE radio waves, and they move with the same speed as all other electromagnetic waves.


Are microwaves radio waves?

Yes and No All waves like that or electomagnetic waves that are the same thing but just operate on different frequencies and wavelengths But not microwaves are as much radio waves as they transmit heat signatures are well as slight audio signature Essentially no but they are very similar microwaves are just faster and at a different wavelengths

What travels in waves?

Mechanical waves such as sound and water waves.Electromagnetic waves, such as light, radio, microwaves, x-rays.


On the electromagnetic spectrum microwaves are located between infrared waves and radio waves. Which is true for microwaves?

That means that both the frequency and the wavelength of microwaves are also between those of infrared and radio waves.


Why frequency of microwaves is longer than radio waves?

Microwaves are radio waves. That name is given to radio waves atfrequencies above 3 GHz (wavelength less than 10 centimeters).


What wavelengths are longer than light but shorter than radio waves?

Infrared light, microwaves and radio waves have wavelengths longer than visible light. Radio waves have the longest wavelength.


What travels faster radio waves or ultraviolet waves?

neither... they both are electromagnetic waves and therefore travel at the same speed... but ultraviolet waves have a higher frequency and also have more energy than radio waves
