Want this question answered?
light waves are electromagnetic
Mechanical waves require a medium to travel, where electromagnetic waves do not.
No, they are mechanical waves.
Non mechanical waves are Eletro magnetic waves. We can devide 2 waves. 1 is mechanical waves & 2 is electromagnetic waves. For example Sound is a mechanical wave & Light is an electromagnetic wave.
Examples of mechanical waves are waves in the ocean and sound waves from devices like mouths, trombones, and radios. Electromagnetic waves like sunshine and X-rays are not mechanical waves because matter is not doing the waving.
Electromagnetic waves
The frequency of any wave is completely determined at its source, and doesn'tchange once the wave leaves the source.The speed of the wave depends on the characteristics of the medium throughwhich it's traveling ... of mechanical waves by the physical characteristics of themedium, and of electromagnetic waves by its electrical characteristics.

The biggest difference is that mechanical waves require a medium to travel through and electromagnetic waves do not.
The biggest difference is that mechanical waves require a medium to travel through and electromagnetic waves do not.
mechanical waves carry mechanical energy and electromagnetic waves carry electromagnetic energy.
No, they are mechanical waves.
Non mechanical waves are Eletro magnetic waves. We can devide 2 waves. 1 is mechanical waves & 2 is electromagnetic waves. For example Sound is a mechanical wave & Light is an electromagnetic wave.
mechanical waves need a medium to travel through, electromagnetic waves do not. Electromagnetic waves can travel through space, mechanical waves can not.:PElectromagnetic waves do not require a medium, but mechanical waves do.
No.They are mechanical waves.
