What else can I help you with?
Why the radio waves are similar to light waves but not sound wavesexplain?
Radio and light waves are electromagnetic waves, sound waves are not.
What radio waves are made of?
Radio waves are electromagnetic energy, similar to light, but of much longer wave lengths.
Is a rainbow made up of radio waves?
no, they are made up of light waves, similar to radio waves and both are in the same spectrum (the electromagnetic spectrum) but they have different wavelenghts.
Is radar wave mechanical?
No. As you might guess from the name, radar uses radio waves. Radio waves, in turn, are a type of electromagnetic wave - in other words, in principle similar to light waves.
What is the difference between a radio telescope and a light telescope?
radio telescope detects radio waves and a light telescope views light waves.
How are radio and ultraviolet waves similar?
they are both electromagnetic waves
Which has longer wavelength radio v light?
Radio waves have longer wavelengths than light waves. Radio waves can have wavelengths ranging from hundreds of meters to kilometers, while visible light waves have wavelengths ranging from 400 to 700 nanometers.
Do visible light waves have higher frequencies than radio waves?
Yes, visible light waves have higher frequencies than radio waves. Visible light waves fall within the range of frequencies on the electromagnetic spectrum that is higher than radio waves.
Why can two radio stations send signals out into the same space at the same time?
Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation similar to visible light. If there were 2 light sources with different color light you would not have any problem seeing both colors. It is the same with radio waves on different wavelengths.
Are radio waves a form of sound or light?
When you listen to the radio, you are hearing sound, which has no resemblance to light, radio waves, or x-rays. However, the sounds you hear are created in the radio receiver, using information that was carried to your location by means of radio waves.
Which have longer wavelength radio waves or light waves?
Radio waves have a far longer wavelength than visible light. The radio waves that do the cooking in your microwave oven are as long as roughly 310,000 waves of blue light placed end-to-end. The radio waves transmitted by an AM station at 1400kHz on your AM dial are roughly 550 billion times as long as blue-light waves.
How are light waves different than radio waves?
Light waves are the wavelengths that register on our visual receptors. Radio waves have a much longer wavelength and not as much energy.
