What causes an electromagnetic wave to be omitted?

An electromagnetic wave is emitted when charged particles accelerate. As they accelerate, they create changing electric and magnetic fields that propagate outward as electromagnetic radiation. This radiation can take on different forms depending on the frequency and energy of the particles emitting it.

Is light a wave of energy?

light is neither a wave or a particle. Light exists as tiny packets of photons which are emitted at random. That is light in its simplest form.Visible light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum and as such is a form of energy.


What medium is disturbed when a light wave is emitted from a flashlight or a candle?

When a light wave is emitted from a flashlight or a candle, the medium that is disturbed is the electromagnetic field. Light is an electromagnetic wave that consists of oscillating electric and magnetic fields propagating through space.


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.


What is the relationship between the energy of an electromagnetic wave and its frequency?

The energy of an electromagnetic wave is directly proportional to its frequency. This means that as the frequency of the wave increases, so does its energy.


What does the energy of a electromagnetic wave depend on?

The energy of an electromagnetic wave depends on its frequency. The energy is directly proportional to the frequency of the wave, meaning higher frequency waves have more energy.
