it just reflects waves radiated from the earth like telephone radiations and this is the thing that is used in satellites!

What do radio waves bounce off?

Radio waves are reflected by many solid objects, such as wood, stone, and notably metal, allowing the use of microwaves in radar applications.Also importantly in broadcast radio, the ionosphere (an upper layer of the Earth's atmosphere) can bounce signals back down to locations beyond the line-of-sight horizon.


What can be found in the form of waves or signals in both exosphere and ionosphere.?

In both the exosphere and ionosphere, you can find electromagnetic waves or signals. These can include radio waves, microwaves, and other forms of electromagnetic radiation. The ionosphere specifically can reflect and refract these waves, allowing long-distance communication via bounce or propagation.


What reflects off the ionosphere?

Radio waves reflect off the ionosphere. The ionosphere is composed of ionized particles that can refract and reflect radio waves, allowing for long-distance communication through the atmosphere. The ability of radio waves to bounce off the ionosphere is important for services like shortwave radio and over-the-horizon radar.


What kind of radio waves can bounce off the ionosphere to extend their range?

Radio waves in the high-frequency (HF) range, typically between 3 MHz and 30 MHz, can bounce off the ionosphere to extend their range. This phenomenon, known as skywave propagation, allows these waves to reflect off the ionosphere and travel beyond the horizon, making long-distance communication possible. The ionosphere's ability to reflect these waves depends on factors such as frequency, time of day, and solar activity.


What layer of the atmosphere do radio waves heading upward from earth often bounce off?

The Ionosphere reflects longer radio waves back to Earth. It varies in height going up at night giving the waves a long distance bounce.Flat vertical walls. Better refraction will Non-ferous metals. Horizontal plan will distort the image of the wave.\ CIV


What is the type of wave is reflected by particles in the ionosphere?

Radio waves are reflected by particles in the ionosphere. These waves are commonly used in long-distance communication because they can bounce off the ionosphere and travel long distances by reflecting and refracting off the charged particles in the Earth's upper atmosphere.
