The energy carried by an electromagnetic wave is called?
EMP or electromagnetic pulse. It can disrupt electronic systems, and signals.
What kind of wave does electromagnetic energy travel in?
The wave is called an electromagnetic wave.
What is the type of energy carried by an electromagnetic wave?
both electric and magnetic energy
What is the transfer of of energy carried by light waves to particles in matter?
This process is called energy absorption.
As an electromagnetic wave travels its energy is carried through?
constantly changing electric and magnetic fields.
Which type of energy travels in waves?
An electromagnetic wave, such as light.An electromagnetic wave, such as light.An electromagnetic wave, such as light.An electromagnetic wave, such as light.
What do you call energy transferred as an electromagnetic wave?
I would call it an electromagnetic wave, or electromagnetic energy.
Eletromagnetic energy traveling in transverse waves is?
That is called an electromagnetic wave.
Which EM waves has the highest frequency?
There is no upper limit to how much energy (and frequency) an electromagnetic wave can have. The highest frequency waves are called gamma radiation.There is no upper limit to how much energy (and frequency) an electromagnetic wave can have.

What is the electromagnetic wave with the highest energy and shortest wavelength called?
A Gamma Ray
What happens to the frequency and energy carried by an electromagnetic wave as the wavelength decreases?
Shorter wavelength indicates higher frequency and higher energy per photon.
Is an electromagnetic a compresinal 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.
