Electromagnetic waves are classified according to?
They are classified according to their wavelength.
Light waves are classified as what waves?
Optical light waves are "Electromagnetic" waves. The colour seen is dependent on the wavelength of the light. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves where the oscillation is 90 degrees to the direction of travel (unlike sound waves which are longitudinal).
Are electromagnetic waves classified as longitudinal waves?
No, electromagnetic waves are classified as transverse waves. In a transverse wave, the oscillation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer. Longitudinal waves, on the other hand, have oscillations parallel to the direction of energy transfer.
How are electromagnetic waves different from other types of waves, and why are electromagnetic waves classified as transverse waves?
Electromagnetic waves are different from other types of waves because they do not require a medium to travel through, unlike sound waves which need a medium like air or water. Electromagnetic waves are classified as transverse waves because their oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of their propagation. This means that the electric and magnetic fields in electromagnetic waves vibrate at right angles to the direction the wave is moving.
How are electromagnetic waves classified?
Electromagnetic waves are classified based on their wavelength and frequency. The electromagnetic spectrum ranges from radio waves (longest wavelength, lowest frequency) to gamma rays (shortest wavelength, highest frequency), with categories in between such as microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, and X-rays. Each category has distinct properties and applications.
How can all waves be classified, including the keyword "either"?
Waves can be classified as either mechanical or electromagnetic based on how they travel through a medium.
Electromagnetic waves are classified according to their?
Frequency. Electromagnetic waves are just magnetic waves that are turning into electric waves. The faster they turn in to each other, the more energy and high up on the spectrum they are.
What are ways to transmit data in space?

What kind of waves are microwaves?
Electromagnetic waves, just like light, but with different frequency and wavelength.
Radiant energy is found in the form of what kind waves?
In Electromagnetic waves
What kind of radiation is used in televisions?
Electromagnetic waves(Radio waves)
What is the classification of electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves can be classified based on their frequency into different types such as radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. This classification is known as the electromagnetic spectrum.
