What famous scientist predicted that light was an electromagnetic wave?
james clerk
What type of wave is a light wave an example of?
Light is an example of a electromagnetic wave.
Which scientist hypothesized that electrons have wave like properties?
De Broglie
Does light travel through electromagnetic waves?
Light IS an electromagnetic wave.
Is light considered a electromagnetic wave?
Light is said to be of dual nature so it has particle nature as well as wave nature but there is a difference in waves and electromagnetic waves. so ,as for your question "Is light a electromagnetic wave" the answer is "no"More precisely, if visible is not an electromagnetic wave, the NO part of the electromagnetic spectrum could be considered to be an electromagnetic wave. By any definition of the term, the answer is 'Yes'
