What else can I help you with?
What do sound waves travel away from?
The source that emitted the sound wave.
Is infared a transverse or longitudinal wave?
No doubt about it; infra red rays are transverse in nature. Only sound waves are longitudinal. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves. Infra red belongs to that family of electromagnetic waves.
Are microwaves a type of infared wave?
No, it is a radio wave.
Which type of electromagnetic wave will be emitted by a cooler object?
The type of electromagnetic waves that will be emitted by a cooler object are waves with long wavelengths. The wavelength of peak emission is determined by Wien's Law.
Is light emitted in waves?
Yes, but it is also, at the same time, emitted in particles (photons) too. This is called the "wave-particle duality" of light.
What are 2 energy waves that cant be seen?
Heat waves (infared) and sound waves.
What type of waves are emitted detected by sonar waves?
Sonar waves are a type of sound wave that are emitted and detected underwater to determine the location and features of objects. They are high-frequency waves that travel through water and bounce off objects, allowing for the measurement of distance and shape.
What is the definition for wave meter tubes?
A wave meter tube is a tubular device used to detect wave signals from electronic devices. It can be used to detect microwaves, and waves emitted from televisions.
What is a type of electromagnetic wave that warms earth?
Infrared radiation is a type of electromagnetic wave that warms the Earth. These waves are emitted by the sun and absorbed by the Earth's surface, leading to an increase in temperature.
What is the difference between waves emitted by the sun and terrestrial wave emissions?
Waves emitted by the sun include a broad spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, from radio waves to gamma rays, while terrestrial wave emissions are usually limited to radio waves, microwaves, and infrared radiation. Sun waves are primarily generated by nuclear fusion in the sun's core, while terrestrial waves are generated by various sources on Earth, such as electronic devices and thermal processes.
What EM waves that make an object feel warmer?
Infrared radiation is the type of electromagnetic wave that makes an object feel warmer. These waves are produced by the heat emitted from objects and are detected by our skin as warmth.
What is the type of wave that allows you to hear the trumpets playing during a concert?
The waves that you hear are called sound waves - it doesn't matter whether it is emitted by a trumpet, or by any other object that you can hear.
