The Sun transfers most of its heat by means of?
Convection and radiation (internally) and radiation (externally).
Which electromagnetic waves are used for communication in space?
radio waves
How do signals travel in space?
By use of electromagnetic waves, usually microwaves or radio waves.
What large object in your solar system emits electromagnetic wave?
The best example of a large object in the solar system that emits electromagnetic waves is the sun, since it is the largest such object and also emits the greatest amount of electromagnetic waves. But also note, the planets Earth and Jupiter also both qualify as large objects which emit electromagnetic waves.
Do stars produce electromagnetic waves?
Didn't you ever see a star? - Light is a type of electromagnetic wave.
How does light waves compare with sound waves?
Light waves are electromagnetic waves that move at the speed of light. Sound waves are compression waves that move through a medium (air, liquids, solids), with varying speeds according to the medium.
In what ways are sound waves and electromagnetic waves different?
They travel at different speeds.
All electromagnetic waves travel at speeds of?
All waves in the electromagnetic spectrum travel at 3x108 ms-1 or 300000000 metres every second.
How does the speed of light compare with the speed of gamma rays when both speeds are measured in a vacuum?
Same speed - light and gamma rays are both electromagnetic waves, but with different frequencies.
What properties are the same for all electromagnetic waves in a vacuum?
Their speeds are all the same.
Who invented em waves?
Electromagnetic waves were predicted, by calculations, by James Clerk Maxwell. Later, different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum were either discovered or confirmed to be electromagnetic waves by various scientists.
Describe the speed of the various electromagnetic waves in a vacuum?
c
Do types of electromagnetic waves differ in their speeds?
No. As long as radio, light, and X-rays are all traveling through the same stuff, their speeds are the same.
Which travels faster radar or light?
Radar is accomplished by bouncing radio waves from the target.Radio waves and light are the same phenomenon ... both are electromagnetic waves,and their speeds are equal.
Are the sun's rays mechanical waves or electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves
What does all these words have in common wavelength waves frequency and amplitude?
All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed in a vacuum, but they have different wavelengths and different frequenciesSource- IS textbook 7th gradeHow do Electromagnetic Waves compare? from this received answers
How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
