What waves are mechanical?
Mechanical wave needs a medium to travel. Examples :- Sound Wave, Seismic Wave etc.
How are em waves different from mechanical waves?
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.
Name one kind of wave that does not require a medium?
An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.
What is the difference between sound waves and electromagetic?
Sound waves requires a medium, electromagnetic waves do not. Sound waves are longitudinal waves, electromagnetic waves are transverse waves. Sound waves Travels at approx. 330m/s in air, electromagnetic waves travel at approx. 3 x 10^8 m/s.
If a radio wave vibrates at 80.0 MHz what is its wavelength?
80 HZ is the frequency of a wave varying at 80 times per second. It could be an acoustic wave (sound), or an electromagnetic wave. (radio or power line)
Why isn't sound a part of the em spectrum?
Sound is a mechanical wave, not an electromagnetic wave.
Is sound a type of electromagnetic wave?
No, sound is not a type of electromagnetic wave. Sound is actually a mechanical wave that requires a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through, while electromagnetic waves like light do not require a medium and can travel through a vacuum.
What kind of waves are sound and light?
Sound is a mechanical wave.Light is an electromagnetic wave.
Which types of these waves is not a mechanical 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.
Is sound an example of an electromagnetic wave?
No. Sound is a longitudinal wave consisting of mechanical vibrations travelling through matter (solid , liquid, gas, etc). An electromagnetic wave (light) is, classically, a transversely oscillating electric and magnetic field and requires no medium in order to travel.
Is a sound wave a electromagnetic wave in nature?
No, a sound wave is not an electromagnetic wave. Sound waves are mechanical waves that require a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through, while electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum and do not need a medium. Sound waves are disturbances in a medium caused by vibrations, while electromagnetic waves are fluctuations in electric and magnetic fields.
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum does the ultrasonic wave falls into?
An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.
What type of wave is not an electromagnetic wave?
A mechanical wave is not an electromagnetic wave.
Is Light is an example of a mechanical wave?
No, light is not an example of a mechanical wave. Light is an example of an electromagnetic wave, which does not require a medium to propagate, unlike mechanical waves like sound waves which do require a medium.
is An electromagnetic wave is a mechanical wave/true or false?
False. An electromagnetic wave is not a mechanical wave; it is a type of wave that can travel through a vacuum, such as light or radio waves. Mechanical waves, on the other hand, require a medium to travel through, like sound waves traveling through air or water waves traveling through water.
What is the opposite of mechanical wave?
The opposite of a mechanical wave is an electromagnetic wave. While mechanical waves require a medium to travel through (such as sound waves in air or water waves in the ocean), electromagnetic waves can propagate through a vacuum without the need for a medium.
Which is not a type of electromagnetic wave?
Sound waves are not a type of electromagnetic wave. Sound waves are mechanical vibrations that require a medium, such as air or water, to propagate, whereas electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum.
