What is a reflector disk that creates radio waves?

Do radio waves travel at the speed of sound at the speed of light or at some speed in between?
'Radio' waves are physically and electrically identical to light waves except for their frequency (wavelength), and they travel at the same speed as light does.
Is Radio waves are shorter than waves of visible light?
Yes, radio waves have a longer wavelength than visible light. They are part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
What kind of material can radio waves penetrate that light waves cannot?
Radio waves can penetrate materials such as walls, buildings, and certain types of soil more effectively than light waves. This is due to their longer wavelengths, which allow them to pass through obstacles that scatter or absorb visible light. For example, radio waves can travel through concrete and wood, while light waves are typically reflected or absorbed by these materials.
Why do radio waves diffract around building's while light waves do not?
Light waves do diffract, but the effect is very very small. In general diffraction effects are important when the object interacting with the wave has dimensions that are comparable to the wavelength of the wave. Light waves have much shorter wavelength compared to the radio waves. Hence the effect. (It should also be noted that radio waves penetrate buildings much better than light waves, but that leads to a more nuanced discussion of diffraction effects.)
How sunlight creates waves?
Light is made up of waves - of a type known as electromagnetic waves.
When Studying an object by looking at the visible light and other electromagnetic waves that the object creates is called?

What creates the highest waves?
There are two general factors that are needed to produce very high waves. These are geographical location and seafloor topography. Wind is what creates the energy that creates waves.
What causes bioluminescent waves?
Bioluminescent waves are caused by the presence of bioluminescent phytoplankton in the water. When these microorganisms are disturbed by movement or waves, they emit a blue-green light as a defense mechanism. This creates the mesmerizing effect of glowing waves at night.
How does transverse move?
Transverse waves move by vibrating particles perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. This motion creates crests and troughs as the wave travels. Examples of transverse waves include electromagnetic waves like light and water waves.
How does a diffraction grating affect white light?
A diffraction grating separates white light into its component colors by bending and spreading the light waves. This creates a spectrum of colors, similar to a rainbow.
Why does heavy stones produce more waves than light stone?
Heavy stones produce more waves than light stones when thrown into water because they displace more water due to their weight. The displacement creates more ripples and waves on the surface of the water.
The intensity of light waves is a measure of what?
The intensity of light waves is a measure of the energy carried by the waves. It is proportional to the square of the amplitude of the waves. The intensity of light waves determines how bright the light appears to us.
What creates electromagnetic waves?

In way is light reflected from a lake surface polarized?
Light reflected from a lake surface can become polarized when the light interacts with the water and air molecules at a specific angle, causing the reflected light waves to vibrate in one plane. This alignment of the light waves creates a polarized reflection, which can be reduced or eliminated using polarizing filters.
How are ultraviolet waves different from light waves?
Ultraviolet waves are smaller than light waves.
What causes electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves are caused by the vibration of electric charges. When an electric charge is accelerated or decelerated, it creates changing electric and magnetic fields that propagate through space as electromagnetic waves.
