One convenient working definition of 'radio' is: Electromagnetic radiation
with frequency up to 300 GHz / wavelength down to 1 millimeter.
'Radio' is our name for the lowest frequency / longest wavelength, so
there's no lower limit on frequency, or upper limit on wavelength.
-- AM commercial radio broadcast band . . .
550 KHz to 1.7 MHz
176.5 to 545.5 meters
-- FM commercial radio broadcast band . . .
88 to 108 MHz
2.78 to 3.41 meters
-- Radio-wave energy used to heat leftover meat loaf
in a microwave oven:
2.45 GHz
12.2 centimeters
What else can I help you with?
Does mechinal waves have radio waves?
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
Are radar waves visible?
No. Radar waves are one category of radio waves. Think of all the radio waves that are all around you right now . . . AM radio, FM radio, police and fire radio, highway patrol radio, taxi radio, television picture and sound radio waves, cellphone radio waves, garage-door-opener radio waves, bluetooth radio waves, WiFi waves, microwaves ... and you can't see any of them ! Radar waves can easily be there in the group.
What radio waves?
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves occurring on the radio frequency portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
How are radio and television waves added to em radio waves?
by changing the amplitude or frequency of the radio waves.
When was Radio Waves - radio station - created?
Radio Waves - radio station - was created in 2010.
How are radio waves and television signals added to EM radio waves?
by changing the amplitude or frequency of the radio waves.
Why the radio waves are similar to light waves but not sound wavesexplain?
Radio and light waves are electromagnetic waves, sound waves are not.
Radio waves do what to the radio so that we may heat them?
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves that carry energy. When these waves are absorbed by the radio's antenna, they induce electrical currents in the circuitry of the radio. This process allows the radio to convert the energy from the radio waves into sound, enabling us to hear broadcasts. However, radio waves themselves do not heat; it is the conversion of that energy into electrical signals that allows the radio to function.
What is a radio wave?
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves. The radio waves have the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum. A radio wave has a much longer wavelength than does visible light. We use radio waves extensively for communications.
Are electromagnetic waves that are felt as heat are called radio waves?
No, electromagnetic waves that are felt as heat are called infrared waves, not radio waves. Radio waves have lower frequencies and longer wavelengths than infrared waves.
