Is electromagnetic radiation infrared radiation?

Yes, electromagnetic radiation includes infrared radiation, which has longer wavelengths than visible light. Infrared radiation is not visible to the human eye but can be felt as heat. It is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which encompasses all forms of electromagnetic radiation.


Is electromagnetic radiation made of photons or the perpendicular oscillation of magnetic and electric fields?

Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is the oscillation and movement of magnetic and electric fields which are perpendicular to each other. This is the way in which electromagnetic radiation is propagated. Photons are another term for higher energy EMR, and it could also be argued that photons make up some forms of electromagnetic radiation.


Does electromagnetic radiation include only visible light waves?

Not exactly. Actually, no. Photons are chunks of electromagnetic waves. As such, they do not produce EM waves, they ARE those waves. A photon inter-acting with some other particle could result in other photons -- ie, a different kind of EM wave -- being created.


What is magnetic radiation?

Wow, that's both an easy question as well as difficult to answer. In layman's terms, electromagnetic radiation could be categorized as any magnetic field created by electrical or electronic means. For example, a transmitted radio signal, TV signal or satellite signal consists of electromagnetic radiation, but then so does the field created by the coils in a transformer, motor or generator.


What is made up of short invisible wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation?

We know that ultraviolet electromagnetic radiation is light that is higher in frequency than the light in the visible spectrum. It may be possible to argue that other shorter wave radiation could also be included, but the question has the feel of one that might be asked by an investigator who is beginning an inspection of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum. Let's keep it simple and begin at the beginning, shall we?

Who said light was an electromagnetic wave?

As soon as James Clerk-Maxwell developed the math that predicted the existence of electromagnetic radiation, he suggested that light could be one of its forms.


What characteristics of the electromagnetic waves predicted by maxwells theory led him to suggest that light might be electromagnetic wave?

Maxwell's theory predicted that electromagnetic waves could travel at the speed of light, which was already known for light. He also found that these waves could exhibit properties similar to light, such as reflection, refraction, and interference, leading him to suggest that light might itself be an electromagnetic wave.


What is the contribution of hertz to electromagnetic theory?

Hertz experimentally confirmed the existence of electromagnetic waves predicted by Maxwell's equations. His experiments demonstrated that these waves could be generated and detected, providing crucial evidence for the unified theory of electromagnetism. Hertz's work paved the way for the practical applications of electromagnetic waves, such as radio communication.


How James Maxwell developed the theory that light wave is a form of electromagnetic wave?

James Maxwell developed the theory that light is an electromagnetic wave by combining the equations of electricity and magnetism, known as Maxwell's equations. He predicted that electromagnetic waves could travel through space at the speed of light and demonstrated that their properties matched those of light waves. His theory provided a unified description of electromagnetism and laid the foundation for modern physics.

Which forms of energy could be given off by a tv?

I believe electromagnetic-a form of radiation.


Is radiation the direct transfer of energy by electromagnetic?

It's the emission of electromagnetic energy from something, not the transfer. That em-radiation could travel for ever across the universe, never interacting with anything ever again and it would still be radiation.________________________________________________________Not all radiation is electromagnetic engery. Electromagnetic energy is transfered by way of photons. Photons are emited through gamma radiation and black body radiation. Nuclear decay of alpha particles and beta particles (which are also considered radiations) are actual particles that have mass, and are not electromagnetic radiation.


Energy that travels by radiation is often called what?

When we use the term "radiation" as regards energy, probably the first thing that comes to mind is electromagnetic energy. Electromagnetic (EM) energy is often called electromagnetic radiation. We know that this could be radio waves, microwave energy, infrared light, light from the visual spectrum, ultraviolet light, X-rays or gamma rays. All of these are forms of electromagnetic radiation, and a link can be found below for more information.Radiant energy.


Is radiation a energy that's transmitted from one place to another by electromagnetic waves?

Yes, radiation is a form of energy that can be transmitted from one place to another through electromagnetic waves. This can include various types of radiation such as gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared radiation, microwaves, and radio waves.


How is heat transffered through space?

through thermal radiation, a type of electromagnetic radiation, convection and conduction could not occur because there are barely anything in space
