Hi ,

In Frequency

No, for you can have sound and radio waves of similar frequencies. The difference is that radio is electromagnetic whereas sound is a mechanical compression wave.

How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?

Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.


What are fundamentally different from the others a. gamma rays b. Radio waves c. sound waves d. light waves e. xrays?

Sound waves. All the others are forms of electromagnetic radiation (visible and invisible light).


What is the difference between a sound wave and a radio wave of same frequency 15kHz?

These waves travel at very different speeds, and therefore also have very different wavelengths. Also, they are different types of waves - mechanical waves vs. electromagnetic waves.


What does a radio transform waves into?

Sound.More informationAfter a modulated carrier signal has been received through the radio's aerial, the radio de-modulates it to release the live sound as picked-up from microphones in the radio studio (or was taken from recordings), which was then used to modulate the carrier signal at the transmitter.De-modulation that is done by a radio receiver can be described very simply as "removing the carrier signal to produce the sound".


Radio waves do what to the radio so that we may heat them?

Radio waves are electromagnetic waves that carry energy. When these waves are absorbed by the radio's antenna, they induce electrical currents in the circuitry of the radio. This process allows the radio to convert the energy from the radio waves into sound, enabling us to hear broadcasts. However, radio waves themselves do not heat; it is the conversion of that energy into electrical signals that allows the radio to function.

Are radio waves are the same as sound waves true or false?

False. Radio waves and sound waves are different types of waves. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves that transmit signals through the air, while sound waves are mechanical waves that transmit vibrations through a medium such as air, water, or solid objects.


Among sound waves light waves X rays Gamma rays and radio waves what is fundamentally different from the others?

Sound wave.


Why the radio waves are similar to light waves but not sound wavesexplain?

Radio and light waves are electromagnetic waves, sound waves are not.


How are light and sound different?

Different is the speed of propagation. Scroll down to related links and look at "Acoustic or sound waves in air - Radio and light waves in a vacuum".


What is is radio sound heard through the use of?

Radio sound is heard through the use of radio waves, which are electromagnetic waves that can carry information from one point to another. These waves are transmitted from a radio station and received by a radio receiver, such as a radio or smartphone, which then converts the waves into sound waves that we can hear.


What do light waves sound waves and radio waves all have in common?

Light waves, sound waves, and radio waves are all forms of energy that propagate through a medium (such as air or space) in the form of waves. They all have different wavelengths and frequencies, which determine their properties and how they interact with the environment.


What is the objective of travel faster radio waves or sound waves?

sound waves


Name 5 different waves you encounter everyday?

Sound waves, light waves, radio waves, microwaves, and ocean 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.


How messages are carried by radio waves?
