The radio converts EM waves through the Transmitter/Receiver. This works because if you pass a magnet over a wire it creates a small electric charge, all EM frequencies do the same so the T/R basically converts the pattern into a easily recognisable form such as voice.

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.


What do am radios convert sound into?

AM transmitters convert sound into amplitude modulated radio waves which am radios convert into electrical pulses which speakers convert into air waves that are converted into sound by our eardrum.


Does mechinal waves have radio waves?

no, mechanical waves are not radio waves


How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?

Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.


Radio waves broadcast by a radio sta-tion strike your radio and your ear.Infer whether the human ear can hear radio waves.What evidence supports your con-clusion?

The human ear cannot hear radio waves because they are electromagnetic waves with frequencies typically ranging from about 30 kHz to 300 GHz, which are far below the audible range for humans (20 Hz to 20 kHz). While radio waves can be detected by radio receivers, the ear is designed to respond only to sound waves, which are mechanical vibrations transmitted through air or other media. Therefore, the fact that we require a radio receiver to convert radio waves into audible sound supports the conclusion that the ear cannot directly hear radio waves.

How do you convert radio waves into dc power?

Don't know the answer? Then you suck!


How do radiowaves work?

The principle of radio waves is that change of current strength will generate waves. Advantage of this special phenomenon information can be loaded on the waves through modulation.when radio waves arriving receive side through space the change of electromagnetic field generated by waves will lead to current in conductor To extract information from change of current and reach the purpose of messaging.

Is a radio a sound energy?

A radio produces sound, and therefore sound energy. The radio waves, however, are electromagnetic energy, not sound. The function of a radio is to convert that electromagnetic energy into sound energy.


How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?

Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.


Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?

Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.


Are radar waves visible?

No. Radar waves are one category of radio waves. Think of all the radio waves that are all around you right now . . . AM radio, FM radio, police and fire radio, highway patrol radio, taxi radio, television picture and sound radio waves, cellphone radio waves, garage-door-opener radio waves, bluetooth radio waves, WiFi waves, microwaves ... and you can't see any of them ! Radar waves can easily be there in the group.


What radio waves?

Radio waves are electromagnetic waves occurring on the radio frequency portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.


How are radio and television waves added to em radio waves?

by changing the amplitude or frequency of the radio waves.
