Radio waves were first predicted by mathematical work done in 1865 by James Clerk Maxwell. Maxwell noticed wavelike properties of light and similarities in electrical and magnetic observations. He then proposed equations that described light waves and radio waves as waves of electromagnetism that travel in space.

In 1887, Heinrich Hertz demonstrated the reality of Maxwell's electromagnetic waves by experimentally generating radio waves in his laboratory.

Is a radio wave longitudinal?

No, radio waves are transverse waves, meaning the oscillation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal waves have oscillations parallel to the direction of wave motion.


Is a radio wave a example of a mechanical wave?

No, a radio wave is not an example of a mechanical wave. A mechanical wave requires a medium to travel through, such as water or air, while a radio wave can travel through a vacuum because it is an electromagnetic wave.
