Are Electromagnetic waves and transverse waves two types of mechanical waves?
False
What evidence is there that sound waves are all electromagnetic in nature?
I think you are confusing something. Sound waves, and electromagnetic waves, are two different types of waves.
What are two types of energy that travel in waves?
Take your pick: water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, gravitational waves.
What form of electromagnetic waves are used in smoke detectors?
There are two types of smoke detectors:Alpha particle - these do not use electromagnetic wavesPhotoelectric - these use a beam of either visible lightor near infrared electromagnetic waves
How do you describe Elcotoromagnetic waves and name two types of electromagnetic?
Two types: Radio Waves and Microwaves Description: A radiation wave caused by electric charge acceleration within the electro-magnetic field.
Are Electromagnetic waves and transverse waves two types of mechanical waves?
False

What are two types of energy that travel in waves?
Take your pick: water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, gravitational waves.
What are the two types of channels for transmitting electromagnetic waves?
Free space and guided medium.
What form of electromagnetic waves are used in smoke detectors?

What are two kinds of fields that make up electromagnetic waves?
Electric and Magnetic

Two types: Radio Waves and Microwaves Description: A radiation wave caused by electric charge acceleration within the electro-magnetic field.
Are there other waves besides electromagnetic and mechanical?
Quantifying the number of types of waves in fact reduces to the problem of quantifying the number of forces. In fact, mechanical waves are a subset of electromagnetic waves, so there are in fact three other types of waves on top of electromagnetic, for the three other fundamental forces: strong nuclear, weak nuclear, gravitational. Mechanical movement can be caused by any of the four fundamental forces. *Short answer: no. By the way, mechanical waves require a medium, where EM waves do not. They are the only, two, separate types of waves.
What are 2 examples of electromagnetic waves?
Transverse and Compressional electromagetic waves Another opinion: No electromagnetic waves are compressional waves. They're all transverse. I think what the question was looking for is: -- Heat and visible light -- Radio waves and X-rays -- Ultraviolet and gamma rays etc.
What are the radiations given out by the sun?
The radiation given off by the sun is electromagnetic waves. The waves are made up of two types of rays ultraviolet and infrared.
What kind of waves are gamma rays and radio waves?
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves and are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Other electromagnetic waves in the electromagnetic spectrum are microwaves, visible light, infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays
Do microwaves work with sound waves at all?
Microwaves and sound waves are similar because they are electromagnetic waves. The main difference between the two types of waves is the length of the wave. Sound waves are longer than microwaves.
