Which travels faster radio waves or microwaves?

-- Microwave ARE radio waves.-- All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed, including radio, microwaves,heat, infrared radiation, light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, gamma rays, and allthe others.


What moves faster an x ray or a microwave?

All electromagnetic waves move at the same speed, at least in vacuum. X-rays and microwaves ... as well as radio, infrared, ultraviolet, heat, and visible light ... are all electromagnetic waves, and travel at the same speed.


If infrared waves can move information through the air, what is the advantage of sending their signals through networks of cables?

Cables transmit infrared waves over longer distances. -Apex :)


What is microwaving?

A short-wavelength radio wave. An electromagnetic wave that is somewhere in between regular radio waves and infrared radiation.


What is the propagating wave in space with electric and magnetic components?

That is called an electromagnetic wave. Electromagnetic waves include visible light, infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, gamma rays, and radio waves. If both the electric and the magnetic components are standstill (do not move) there will be no propagating waves. The wave will be created if either the electric or the magnetic moves or disturbed. The electromagnetic wave will spread out everywhere on the plane with a frequency perpendicular to its direction. In vacuum, the wave travels at the speed of light. In other mediums, the speed will be less than the speed of light. The wave will spread out uniformly an all direction if the density if the medium in uniform.

Does Light waves move at a higher frequency than infrared waves?

yes it does!


Where are radio waves faster-earth or space?

Radio waves travel with the highest speed in vacuum, and slightly slower in air. So they move slightly faster in space than on earth.

What is electromoagnetic waves?

Electromagnetic waves refer to a whole family of waves that are emitted by moving charges. These include gamma rays, xrays, ultraviolet light, regular light, infrared light, microwaves and radio waves. They all have the same basic characteristics but have dififferent frequency and wavelength ranges. They are made up of electric and magnetic fields. These fields can exert forces on charges they hit and cause them to move. So radio waves emitted by a radio station transmitter travel thru space and hit the antenna in your radio. This causes the charges in the antenna to move which is then converted back into sound. Light waves that hit your arm cause the charges to move and you feel warm etc.

Why person heard the message through the cell phone before they heard it through the air?

Radio waves move at the speed of light, much faster than the speed of sound.


Do higher radio frequencies travel faster?

Electromagnetic waves in a vacuum move at the speed of light in a vacuum, as light is just one form of electromagnetic wave. According to Einstein's Theory of Relativity, nothing can move faster than the speed of light in a vacuum, so there is no way to speed up radio waves (unless they are initially moving in some other medium than a vacuum).


How spacewave came back to the earth?

Radio waves are often referred to as space waves because they have the ability to move through space. Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation.


What job do you use radio waves for?
