What wave travels through outer space?

Self propagating electro-magnetic waves. Otherwise known as light waves.


What is the source of electro magnetic waves?

Electromagnetic waves are created by the movement of charged particles. These waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that propagate through space at the speed of light.


Are radio waves electromagnet or pneumatic?

They are electromagnetic.


What waves are unique because of there ability to travel through a vacuum. a space that contains no particles of matter?

Electromagnetic waves are unique because they can travel through a vacuum, which does not contain matter particles. This is because electromagnetic waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that can propagate through empty space.


Which type of energy can move through space as a wave?

Energy in the form of electro magnetic waves. Some examples are light,heat,UV etc


Does electro magnetic wave is a mechanical wave?

No, electromagnetic waves are not mechanical waves. Mechanical waves require a medium through which to travel, such as air or water, while electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum. electromagnetic waves are created by oscillating electric and magnetic fields and can travel through empty space.


Why are electromagnetic waves called EM waves?

Electromagnetic waves are called EM waves because they are composed of oscillating electric and magnetic fields. These fields propagate through space, carrying energy with them. The combination of electric and magnetic fields gives rise to the term "electromagnetic."


What type of wave carries signals for radio and television program's?

Communications Satellites ************************ Electro-magnetic waves. Carrier waves.


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


How electro magnetic produced?

Electromagnetic waves are produced by the acceleration of electric charges. When an electric charge is accelerated, it creates a changing electric field, which in turn produces a changing magnetic field. These changing electric and magnetic fields interact with each other, resulting in the generation of electromagnetic waves that propagate through space.
