What two kinds of fields make up an EM wave?
scalar field and vector field
What is light classiified as when electrical and magnetic fields vibrate in a light wave?
Since light has these electrical and magnetic fields, it is a type of electromagnetic wave.
What is light an oscillation of?
Light is an electromagnetic wave, that is, an oscillation of both the electric and the magnetic fields.
Why do light waves not need a medium?
Their "medium" is space itself. A light wave is an electromagnetic wave - a disturbance in electric and magnetic fields, and those affect space itself.
What waves have the most light waves?
Light wave is an electromagnetic wave, so light waves are a kind of wave. I don't understand what you mean by what waves have the most light waves. It's not possible to emit a combination of different kinds of waves (such mechanical, EM wave, sound wave) from a single source.

Why can light travel through a vacumn?
That is because light is not an atom bumbing into the next atom (as in a sound wave), but changes in the electrical and magnetic fields. These can exist in empty space.That is because light is not an atom bumbing into the next atom (as in a sound wave), but changes in the electrical and magnetic fields.

Would you still have light if you did not have magnetism?
No. Light is an electromagnetic wave. There can't be one without the other. Electric fields and magnetic fields are part of the same thing.

Their "medium" is space itself. A light wave is an electromagnetic wave - a disturbance in electric and magnetic fields, and those affect space itself.
What do you mean when you say that light is a electromagnetic?
Electromagnetic wave, actually. That means that changes in both electric and magnetic fields propagate as a wave.

Structure and functions of the equipment used to produce wave energy?
There are many different kinds of waves, and many different kinds of wave energy, and many different kinds of equipment used to produce such energy. For example, a lightbulb, since light is a form of electromagnetic wave.
What consists of vibrating electric and magnetic fields that move through space at the speed of light?
an electromagnetic wave
What kinds of electromagnetic wave helps you read a book?
light .......frm Krishna iit Bombay
Is energy required to make a wave?
yes, energy is required to make a wave (whether it is sound wave, light wave or any other waves)
