Yes. So are heat waves, ultraviolet waves, X-rays, and gamma rays.
They're all the same thing, only with different wavelengths.

Which is faster gamma waves or radio waves?
Both are forms of electromagnetic energy and travel at the same speed, which is the speed of light.
Does a radio wave travel faster than a sound wave?
Radio waves are sound. Therefore, yes, by definition, they travel at the speed of sound.
What kind of waves are gamma rays and radio waves?
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves and are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Other electromagnetic waves in the electromagnetic spectrum are microwaves, visible light, infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays
Which type of wave travels faster gamma or radio?
The same. Both are electromagnetic waves; in a vacuum, they both travel at the speed of light.
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.
What are microwaves light and radio waves examples of?
They are both electromagnetic waves.
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.
What are the similarities between gamma rays and radio waves?
Both are electromagnetic waves.
Is a rainbow made up of radio waves?
no, they are made up of light waves, similar to radio waves and both are in the same spectrum (the electromagnetic spectrum) but they have different wavelenghts.
Does a radio wave travel faster than a sound wave?
Radio waves are sound. Therefore, yes, by definition, they travel at the speed of sound.
Which is faster gamma waves or radio waves?
Both are forms of electromagnetic energy and travel at the same speed, which is the speed of light.
How are radio and ultraviolet waves similar?
they are both electromagnetic waves
Are radio waves a form of sound or light?
When you listen to the radio, you are hearing sound, which has no resemblance to light, radio waves, or x-rays. However, the sounds you hear are created in the radio receiver, using information that was carried to your location by means of radio waves.
What is the link between radio waves and visible light?
Both are electromagnetic waves travelling at a speed about 300,000 km in one second in free space or in air medium. But radio waves have longer wavelength compared to that of light waves.
How come light travels in straight lines but radio waves spread out?
Light and Radio Waves are both forms of Electromagnetic radiation, and propagate at c (that is, the speed of light, 3*10^8m/s). Both light and radio waves can travel in straight lines, or by spreading out, depending on how they are made. For example, a radio dish and a light bulb can both spread out light and radio waves in 360 degrees.
What kind of waves are gamma rays and radio waves?
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves and are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Other electromagnetic waves in the electromagnetic spectrum are microwaves, visible light, infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays
Is the velocity of light more than velocity of radio waves?
No as they are both electromagnetic waves so have the same velocity but have differing wavelengths and frequencies.
