Frequency determines the scalar energy of electromagnetic wave, E= hf=hc/r.
Electromagnetic Spectrum
En electromagnetic wave is assimilable to a photon. The energy of a photon is equal to its frequency (that determines its "color") multiplied by the Planck's constant (h).
The frequency of the source that produced the wave.
Its wavelength/frequency.
The size of the wavelength w determines the energy of the wave. E = hc/w =cp and the Momentum of the wave, p=h/w.

I would call it an electromagnetic wave, or electromagnetic energy.
The wave is called an electromagnetic wave.
The frequency of the source that produced the wave.

No, an electromagnetic wave is NOT a compressional wave. An electromagnetic wave is best described as a transverse wave. Remember that in a compressional wave, the energy moves parallel to the medium of the wave, while in a transverse wave, the energy moves perpendicular to the medium.
The size of the wavelength w determines the energy of the wave. E = hc/w =cp and the Momentum of the wave, p=h/w.
Electromagnetic wave
Electromagnetic waves transfer energy.
It is a high energy electromagnetic wave.
