Is a radio wave a mechanical wave?
No, a radio wave is not a mechanical wave. A radio wave is a form of electromagnetic (EM) energy, and it does not require a medium through which to travel like a mechanical wave does. Radio waves can travel through the vacuum of space. Let's contrast that with a mechanical wave.A mechanical wave involves the transfer of mechanical energy into and through a medium. Sound waves (which travel through air) and water waves (which move through water) are mechanical waves. They cannot travel without a medium through which to move.

Mechanical wave, Surface wave, Transitional wave.
What type of wave is a mechanical wave?
A mechanical wave is a wave that uses a medium to travel. Without a medium, it would not be able to go anywhere.
Is a sound wave a mechanical wave?
Yes, a sound wave is a mechanical wave. Sound waves need a medium (like air) to travel through. The energy of the wave, the mechanical energy, is transferred into the medium through which it is propagated.
Is an earthquake wave a mechanical wave?
Yes, earthquake or seismic waves are mechanical waves.
