Radio waves originate from various sources, including natural phenomena like lightning and astronomical objects, as well as human-made devices such as radios, cell phones, and broadcasting towers.
Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation that can carry signals over long distances. In communication, radio waves are used to transmit information through radio and television broadcasts, cell phone calls, and Wi-Fi connections. They are also used in radar systems for navigation and in satellite communication for broadcasting and data transmission.
James Clerk-Maxwell only developed the theoretical basis for radio waves. David Hughes first sent radio waves through the air in 1879, but his results were unclear -- ie, what Hughes saw was not unambiguously the EM waves predicted by Maxwell. Heinrich Hertz, in 1886, did more exacting experiments and showed that EM waves were exactly as Maxwell predicted.

Light waves and 'radio' waves (i.e. infra red, UV, xray, etc.) At one time it was thought they did have a medium. A sort of 'gelatin' that went throughout the universe. The called 'the ether'. You see the term used a lot in radio magazines of the 1910s and 1920s.
The original name for radio was "wireless telegraphy." This term referred to the transmission of telegraphic messages without the use of wires, utilizing electromagnetic waves instead. Over time, the term "radio" became more widely adopted to encompass all forms of radio communication, including voice, music, and data transmission. Today, "radio" broadly refers to all technologies that use electromagnetic waves for communication.

It's an acronym for SOund Navigation And Ranging, pretty much the same as RADAR, RAdio Detection And Ranging, but working with sound waves instead of radio waves. Both got their big break in WWII.
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
No. Radar waves are one category of radio waves. Think of all the radio waves that are all around you right now . . . AM radio, FM radio, police and fire radio, highway patrol radio, taxi radio, television picture and sound radio waves, cellphone radio waves, garage-door-opener radio waves, bluetooth radio waves, WiFi waves, microwaves ... and you can't see any of them ! Radar waves can easily be there in the group.
by changing the amplitude or frequency of the radio waves.
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves occurring on the radio frequency portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
The waves that are slower that those that originate at the focus are called secondary waves or S-waves. They are shear waves that are transverse in nature.
Radio Waves - radio station - was created in 2010.
by changing the amplitude or frequency of the radio waves.
This is most likely because of electromagnetic waves that can originate in an engine. It can be heard on a cb radio at times.
