How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
How does the electromagnetic spectrum organize the different types of energy waves?
The electromagnetic spectrum organizes different types of electromagnetic waves according to their wavelength or frequency.
What does gamma rays and radio waves have in common?
They are all basically the same thing, electromagnetic radiation, but with different frequencies. All these waves are em waves which travel with the speed of light and it is the common b/w all the waves.
What are sound waves produced by a vibrating object?
SEISMIC WAVES.Tranverse Waves.
What kind of waves are gamma rays and radio waves?
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves and are a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Other electromagnetic waves in the electromagnetic spectrum are microwaves, visible light, infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays
What models explain the behavior of electromagnetic waves?
Many properties of electronmagnetic waves can be explained by a wave model. However, some properties can be explained by a particle model.
Which waves have some electrical properties and some magneric properties?
Electromagnetic Waves.
What waves have some electrical properties and some magnetc properties?
Electromagnetic Waves.
What are the properties of electromagnetic waves?
speedwavelengthfrequencypolarization
Which waves have some electrical properties and some magnetic properties?
The answer is electromagnetic waves.
What does contrast electromagnetic waves with water and sound waves mean?
It means explain how electromagnetic waves are different than water and sound waves.
How do waves differ from one another?
Electromagnetic waves differ in there properties because of the difference in there frequency
How are electromagnetic waves formed when 4 hydrogen atoms fuse into 1 helium atom?
light waves are produced by our star. they are electromagnetic waves. please explain.
What properties are the same for all electromagnetic waves in a vacuum?
Their speeds are all the same.
What is light desribed in terms of electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves move in an oscilating fashion and do not need a medium. Light waves do not need a medium but light waves are considered both particles and waves (Dual Nature of Light). Neither can explain everything but allow us to learn some things. Light waves are simply a type of electromagnetic waves, there are other types (microwaves, x-rays etc.) Also, light waves are the only electromagnetic waves that we are able to see. Light waves also allow us to see colors (the electromagnetic spectrum).ANSWERAll electromagnetic waves, including light, have both wave and particle properties. It is more convenient to describe all electromagnetic radiation in terms of wavelength including light but also radio waves. If fact, all matter has wave properties. This is the principle of the eletron microscope where the wave proerties of electrons are used. Calculating the wavelength of a tennis ball is also possible. (See De Broglie wavelength)
What are properties of waves?
There are different kinds of wave, such as sound waves, electromagnetic waves, water waves etc. So the first property I would describe as the wave medium. Then you would have the additional properties of amplitude and frequency.
Are all waves mechanical waves?
maybe? ----- No, you are forgetting about electromagnetic radiation such as a light, radio, x-rays, and so on that also have wave properties. Mechanical waves are able to travel through matter but electromagnetic waves can travel in a vacuum.
