It is the ionosphere, a general region that includes all of the thermosphere and parts of the two bordering layers. In this region, between 60 and 1000 kilometers above the Earth, ionized particles refract and reflect radio waves back toward the ground. This enables radio transmissions that are normally "line of sight" only to reach over the horizon for hundreds or thousands of miles. This includes broadcast radio (HF) and shortwave bands.

What layer of the atmosphere do radio waves heading upward from earth often bounce off?
The Ionosphere reflects longer radio waves back to Earth. It varies in height going up at night giving the waves a long distance bounce.Flat vertical walls. Better refraction will Non-ferous metals. Horizontal plan will distort the image of the wave.\ CIV
What wave viabrates faster radio wave or microwaves?
Microwaves ARE radio waves, with frequencies above 3 GHz.
Is ultrasonic wave radio frequency?
ultrasonic wave is sound frequency
What is a radio wave?
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.
Is the speed of a radio wave in a vacuum greater than the speed of a gamma ray?
No. The speed of all electromagnetic radiation is the same in vacuum, from the longest radio wave to the shortest gamma wave.
Why radio waves travel longer over the sea?
Radio wave strength can be affected by weather when traveling over the sea. Unusual atmospheric phenomena enable longer radio wave travel.
How muilit model and single model fiber optic cable works?
I think there is a layer of glass wich reflects the wave down the cable the the reciver turns it into digatel or audio and gives of a messadge to the tv or radio or any other

How do you make radio wave in Doodle God?
Void+electricity
How do you make radiation in doodle god?
Radio wave + radio wave will make radiation.
What kind of wave is a radio wave?
A radio wave is a kind of electromagnetic wave.
Are electromagnet wave is radio wave?
yes, electromagnetic wave is a radio wave
Is a radio wave longitudinal?
Radio wave is not a longitudinal wave it is a transverse wave
How do you make A laser on Doodle God?
radio wave + fireFire + radio wave = Laser
WHAT wave can represent a radio wave?
A radio
Which one of the following is not an example of a mechanical wave water wave earthquake wave sound wave or radio wave?
"Radio wave" is not like the others. "Radio wave" doesn't belong.
How do you make a radion wave in doodle god?
Radio Wave + Radio Wave = Radiation
