Light wave an sample of mechanical wave?
No, light waves is an example of Electro Magnetic waves
What wave does not require a medium for energy transfer?
Electro-magnetic waves.
What Waves in a light wave?
Light wave being visible is not a mechanical wave. It means that it does not need a material medium to be propagated. Even through vacuum it can traverse. Whereas sound waves are mechanical waves. So without a material medium no propagation is possible. So sound cannot pass through vacuum. Being a non mechanical wave light wave is an electro magnetic wave. It is transverse in nature.
Why is a vibrating electric field an example of an electromagnetic wave?
The changing electric field will produce a magnetic field; the changing magnetic field will cause an electric field; both will propagate as a wave - an electro-magnetic wave.
What type of energy travels through space?
Could be either a * gravitational wave * electro-static wave * magnetic wave * or a combination of a electro-static and a magnetic wave (usually called light) In matter is could be a * compressional wave * siderial wave

No, light waves is an example of Electro Magnetic waves
What electro magnetic wave has the highest frequencies?
gamma rays
What is the Motion that occurs when you use a telephone?
electro-magnetic wave

How does related to light?
Light, being a vibrating electro-magnetic wave, has a frequency of vibration.
What determines the amount of radiant energy that can be carried by an electro magnetic wave?
i believe the frequency
How does an electro-magnetic wave get its name?
Electricity and magnetism are closely related. When you pass a current through a conductor, a magnetic field is produced. In continuously changing current, a disturbance is caused in the form of a wave, in both the magnetic field and electrostatic field. Hence electro-magnetic. Examples of this wave extends across a whole spectrum, including radio waves, x-rays and light.
How does frequency relate to light?
Light, being a vibrating electro-magnetic wave, has a frequency of vibration.
What is non mechanical wave?
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.
