Which type of energy travels in waves?
An electromagnetic wave, such as light.An electromagnetic wave, such as light.An electromagnetic wave, such as light.An electromagnetic wave, such as light.
What is the highest pint of the transverse wave called?
The highest point on a transverse wave is called a crest. Also, the lowest point is called a trough.
What makes a compression wave?
compression wave is a wave like a sound wave
Is a sound wave a transverse wave?
No, a sound wave is a compressional wave.
Which earthquake wave is not a seismic wave?
the sound wave
What electro magnetic wave has the highest frequencies?
gamma rays
What is the Motion that occurs when you use a telephone?
electro-magnetic wave
Light wave an sample of mechanical wave?
Light waves are not considered mechanical waves because they do not require a medium to propagate. Mechanical waves, on the other hand, require a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through. Light waves are electromagnetic waves that can travel through a vacuum.
What wave does not require a medium for energy transfer?
Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium for energy transfer. These waves can travel through a vacuum because they are made up of changing electric and magnetic fields. Examples of electromagnetic waves include light, radio waves, and X-rays.
Why is a vibrating electric field an example of an electromagnetic wave?
The changing electric field will produce a magnetic field; the changing magnetic field will cause an electric field; both will propagate as a wave - an electro-magnetic wave.
What is a radio wave's relative wavelength and frequency compared to other waves in the Electro-Magnetic Spectrum?
Radio waves are the lowest frequency (and therefore longest wavelength) waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.
What type of energy travels through space?
Could be either a * gravitational wave * electro-static wave * magnetic wave * or a combination of a electro-static and a magnetic wave (usually called light) In matter is could be a * compressional wave * siderial wave
How does related to light?
Light, being a vibrating electro-magnetic wave, has a frequency of vibration.
What determines the amount of radiant energy that can be carried by an electro magnetic wave?
The amount of radiant energy carried by an electromagnetic wave is determined by the wave's frequency. Higher frequency waves carry more energy compared to lower frequency waves. This relationship is described by Planck's equation, E=hf, where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, and f is the frequency of the wave.
How does an electro-magnetic wave get its name?
Electricity and magnetism are closely related. When you pass a current through a conductor, a magnetic field is produced. In continuously changing current, a disturbance is caused in the form of a wave, in both the magnetic field and electrostatic field. Hence electro-magnetic. Examples of this wave extends across a whole spectrum, including radio waves, x-rays and light.
How does frequency relate to light?
Light, being a vibrating electro-magnetic wave, has a frequency of vibration.
What is 300000 kilometers per second?
That is the speed of light. (or any other wave in the electro-magnetic spectrum).
