A heat wave is a prolonged but minor "drought" that occurs in an area that varies by the air pressure and the weather conditions.
If you are referring to the electromagnetic wave that is felt as heat then it is "infra red" or thermal radiation.

What type of ocean wave moves the fastest?
Indian Ocean waves.
Which is not a type of electromagnetic wave?
Sound waves aren't an electromagnetic wave. So aren't seismic waves. So aren't waves in the ocean, in your hair, or waves bye-bye.
Wave that moves back and forth?
True. The up-down type of wave is called a "transverse wave". Light, for example, is this kind of wave. Sound, however, is a different kind of wave. It is the back-forth type, called "longitudinal", or "compression" waves.
What is the fastest type of seismic wave?
p waves aka primary waves
Does a heat wave occur before a tropical storm?
No. Tropical storms and heat waves are not related phenomena.
What type of EM wave is most often associated with heat?
The ones called "heat waves", or infrared radiation.
Are radio waves a type of mechanical wave or a type of electromagnetic wave?
Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic wave.
Which type of heat transfer occurs in the form of waves?
It is call radiation heat transfer. The radiation is photon and is the electromagnetic wave.
The way in which heat travels throgh air in the form of waves?
Heat travels in theform of Infra red. It is an electromagnetic wave type
Are heat waves transverse or longitudinal?
No. Radiant heat is an electromagnetic wave, and EM waves are transverse waves.
Which seismic wave type arrives first during an earthquake?
The P Waves. Then the S Waves.
In what type of waves do particles in the medium vibrate perpendicularly to the direction in which the waves are traveling?
transverse waves.
Are shear waves and seismic waves the same?
A shear wave is a type of seismic wave.
What type of wave is P wave?
Body Waves
Wave in which particles move parallel to wave motions?
This type of wave is called longitudinal waves.
What type of waves are there?
p-wave s-wave l-wave
Firstaid on heat and cold waves?
