What do radio waves propagated through the interaction of?
radio waves are propagated through the interaction of
What waves are propagated by electromagnetism?
Electromagnetic waves.
How are electromagnetic waves generated and propagated?
Electromagnetic waves (those that can transmit their energy through a vacuum) have both an electric and a magnetic component. They are created by a vibration of charged particles. When passing through a medium, they are propagated by absorption and reemission of the wave energy by the atoms in the material.
Electromagnetism is propagated by what waves?
Wave
What does the e stand for in EM waves?
EM waves stand for Electromagnetic waves.
What is the energy transferred as em waves?
EM waves or electromagnetic waves is radiant energy.
What does E in EM wave stand for?
EM waves stand for Electromagnetic waves.
Are em waves longitudinal are transverse?
EM waves are both Transverse and Longitudinal.
How is sound propagated through air?
In the form of longitudinal waves
How are em waves different from mechanical 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.
Which EM waves have the longest wavelenghts?
Radio waves
Can you smell EM waves?
Electromagnetic waves have no odor.
