Radio waves aren't necessarily harmless. Radio waves, especially very short ones, can cook food; so they need to be used carefully too. Infrared can burn you, visible light can kill you, and UV is very destructive. But X-rays and Gamma rays are very short and will tear up molecules and even atoms without you knowing it. Be careful out there. Wear your tin-foil hat!

Why are microwaves more dangerous than radio waves?

Microwaves are more dangerous than radio waves because they have higher frequencies and can penetrate deeper into the body, potentially causing harm to tissues and organs.


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.


How does the sped of radio wave compare with speed of tv waves when both measured in vacuum?
