How do very long radio waves reach stations beyond the curvature of the Earth?
Radio waves, like all forms of electro magnetic radiation are affected by gravity, so the Earth's mass helps to bend the radio waves to an extent. Beyond that, radio waves can be reflected naturally by atmospheric conditions, but generally, when a radio signal needs to be transmitted a significant distance, it is done by a series of radio towers in relay.AnswerThe condition is called 'skip'. The waves bounce off the ionisphere and back to earth way past the curvature.
Calculates distance by echoing radio waves?
Radar.
How do different obstacles affect radio waves?
Radio waves hit all obstacles the same, but the waves will differ in the distance of the wave and/or the object from the transmitter.
What is changing in an AM radio wave?
As time passes, the amplitude of AM radio waves is intentionally changed in order to add information to the waves that can be read at a distance.
Gathering information from a distance through images sound waves radio waves etc?
Remote sensing

Gathering information from a distance- through images sound waves radio waves etc is called?
remote sensing.
What is Gathering information from a distance through images sound waves radio waves etc called?
remote sensing
What level of atmosphere bounces off radio waves off of the earth?
Radio waves are in all parts of the atmosphere. Some, but not all, radio waves are reflected from the ionosphere, permitting transmission over greater distances.
What is distomate?
Distomat is an instrument used to measure distance using light and radio waves.
Gathering information from a distance through images sound waves radio waves etc is called?
remote sensing.
Does mechinal waves have radio waves?
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
