In a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves have the same propagation speed of c = 300,000,000 meters per second (the speed of light). All of these waves, however, may have different frequencies and thus wavelengths.
The speed of a wave is related to its frequency and wavelength by the relation
(speed) = (frequency) X (wavelength)
Since the speed of electromagnetic waves in a vacuum is constant, the frequency and wavelength are "inversely proportional" to one another. This means that cutting the frequency of a wave in half makes its wavelength double, and vice versa.

The waves that are the most infictint are the seismic waves
1 What types of waves are light and electromagnetic waves?
The type of waves that are electromagnetic are the visible light waves
What are Microwaves infrared waves and gamma rays are all examples of?
Electromagnetic radiation.
How do raidiators in homes transfer heat?
Radiators transfer heat by electromagnetic waves. The sun waves/rays send electromagnetic waves.
What is the Energy that travels across distances in the form of electromagnetic waves?
Energy transfered in the form of electromagnetic waves is classified according to wavelength of the radiation. Radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma rays are all forms of electromagnetic radiation.
What do all electromagnetic waves do the same?
they all have the same speed
What is it that all electromagnetic waves do the same?
All electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light in a vacuum and can be characterized by their wavelength and frequency.
How are all electromagnetic wave alike?
All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed.
In any one material all electromagnectic waves have the same?
In any one material all electromagnetic waves have the same velocity. Electromagnetic waves traveling through a medium travel at the same speed.

speed?
In a vacuum all electromagnetic waves have?
In a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves have equal velocity.
Which kind of electromagnetic wave travels fastest in a vacum?
All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed in vacuum.
What do electromagnetic waves have in common?
They all have the same speed of travel.
Is the speed in vacuum of all electromagnetic waves the same?
Yes, it is.
What does gamma rays and radio waves have in common?
They are all basically the same thing, electromagnetic radiation, but with different frequencies. All these waves are em waves which travel with the speed of light and it is the common b/w all the waves.
The speed of an electromagnetic wave is?
In a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves have the same speed: about 300,000 kilometers per second.In a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves have the same speed: about 300,000 kilometers per second.In a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves have the same speed: about 300,000 kilometers per second.In a vacuum, all electromagnetic waves have the same speed: about 300,000 kilometers per second.
