Pretend there is a patient and the doctors need to see deep into his body, in a safe way. To start off, they use the MRI, which uses the radio waves to construct a computer image (of the tissue, they are looking at). The MRI device sends a short bursts of radio waves into the paitients body. The radio waves energize atoms (energize the patients particles inside his body)and make them line up. When the radio pulses are turned off the atoms return to there original position and the radio waves return to the machine (when the radio waves come back to the machine or when they return, the machine now has the picture of the tissue).
It is kind of like a delivery man or getting your picture taken. For example, the delivery man... at first it is like a shock you get mail, then when it is done the delivery man leaves. He goes and deliveries it to someone else. So, then that person just recieved whatever you sent. Just like the machine, the machine just got whatever the radio waves gave it... the picture of the tissue.
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
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.
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves. The radio waves have the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum. A radio wave has a much longer wavelength than does visible light. We use radio waves extensively for communications.
Radio waves were discovered before the radio was invented.
This is likely describing the process of using radar technology to determine the position of a solid object. Radar works by emitting high-frequency radio waves towards an object and then measuring the time it takes for the waves to reflect back, allowing for calculations of the object's distance and position.
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.
A dish antenna must face the arriving waves.

Radar locates objects with radio waves.
radar
The radar antenna sends out a short pulse of radio waves in a direction, then listens for radio waves coming back. If any radio waves come back, then they must have hit something and echoed (bounced) back. The time it takes them to return tells how far away the solid object is that they bounced off of. Then the antenna turns to a slightly different direction and does the whole thing again.
Prolonged exposure to radio waves can lead to health issues such as headaches, fatigue, and sleep disturbances. Additionally, there is ongoing research to determine if radio waves may have long-term effects on human health, such as an increased risk of cancer.
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
Microwaves, light, and radio waves are all examples of electromagnetic waves. These waves are characterized by their ability to travel through a vacuum without the need for a medium, and they all have different wavelengths and frequencies that determine their specific properties and uses.
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
