Examples of mechanical and electromagnetic waves?
Some examples of mechanical waves are Sound, waves in a slinky, and water. Mechanical waves need matter to move. Some examples of electromagnetic waves are Radio, Gamma, X-rays, Infra-red, and Microwaves Electromagnetic waves are able to travel through a medium of liquids, solids, and geaseous states, or through space where there is no material at all, called "vacuum".
What is the transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves?
first of all electromagnetic waves are energy waves. and we call electromagnetic waves RADIATION.
In a vacuum all electromagnetic waves have?
In a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves have equal velocity.
Give one example of transverse waves?
Radio waves and Light. Audio waves are not considered transverse. Since pressure is a constant, it eliminates a vector, thus making it a longitudinal wave.
What is the relation between the frequency wavelength and speed of a sound wave?
Speed = frequency x wavelengthThis is true for all waves, sound waves as well as electromagnetic 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 Microwaves infrared waves and gamma rays are all examples of?
Electromagnetic radiation.
Is visible light a form of electromagnetic radiation?
Yes. Radio waves, microwaves, visible light, and x rays are all examples of electromagnetic waves.

When scientists talk aboutelectromagnetic radiation what are they really describing?
Electromagnetic radiation is also known as electromagnetic waves. That are produced by the motion of electrically charged particles. Electromagnetic energy is a term used to describe all the different kinds of energies.
Which property do all electromagnetic waves have in vacuums?
All electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light in a vacuum.
Give one example of transverse waves?
Radio waves and Light. Audio waves are not considered transverse. Since pressure is a constant, it eliminates a vector, thus making it a longitudinal wave.
What is the relation between the frequency wavelength and speed of a sound wave?
Speed = frequency x wavelengthThis is true for all waves, sound waves as well as electromagnetic waves.
What waves require matter to carry energy?
All waves except electromagnetic waves and gravitational waves (predicted by General Relativity, but not yet detected).Some examples are:sound waveswater wavesearthquake wavesetc.
