Electromagnetic waves are very much different from the matter waves and in many ways.

a) Speed of matter waves is very much less than the speed of electromagnetic waves.

b) Matter waves cannot be radiated in empty space unlike electromagnetic waves.

c) Matter waves are just associated with the particle, not emitted by it

Matter waves have smaller wave lengths than electromagnetic waves

How are infrared waves and X-rays alike?

Infrared and X-ray are alike, in that both of them are electromagnetic waves, albeit different. Electromagnetic waves are "a phenomenon that takes the form of self-propagating waves in vacuum or in matter." (Wikipedia article) They are both parts of the Electromagnetic spectrum (Wikipedia article) The difference between the different wave of the spectrum is their wavelength ."The distance over which the waves shape repeats." (Wikipedia article)


What are some common electromagnetic spectrum questions that can help us understand the various properties and behaviors of electromagnetic waves?

Some common questions about the electromagnetic spectrum that can help us understand its properties and behaviors include: How do different wavelengths of electromagnetic waves affect their energy and frequency? What is the relationship between the speed of electromagnetic waves and the medium through which they travel? How do electromagnetic waves interact with matter, such as absorption, reflection, and transmission? How do different types of electromagnetic waves, such as visible light, radio waves, and X-rays, differ in their properties and applications? How are electromagnetic waves used in technologies like communication, imaging, and remote sensing?


Does all matter emits electromagnetic waves?

All atomic matter emits electromagnetic waves, since it is all hotter than absolute zero and therefore has some degree of vibration, however slight, which results in electromagnetic waves since atomic matter contains charged particles. However, there are other types of matter. Exchange particles such as photons, gravitons, or pi-mesons, do have matter, but do not emit electromagnetic waves. Dark matter, which seems to constitute a very large part of our universe, does not emit electromagnetic waves.


Do electromagnetic waves need molecules to travel?

No, electromagnetic waves do not need matter to travel. However, they can interact with matter and change accordingly.
