The frequency of all electrical waves is measured in cycles per second or Hertz, sound waves or audio is the lower range of the spectrum from one Hz to about ten Kilo Hz where the frequency is to high for human or animal hearing that is where radio waves or radio frequency start up to many Giga Hz where the different light frequencies start like white light, infra red, ultra violet and X-ray ETC.

Do microwaves work with sound waves at all?

Microwaves and sound waves are similar because they are electromagnetic waves. The main difference between the two types of waves is the length of the wave. Sound waves are longer than microwaves.


What has to happen to sound wave before they can be transmitted by radiowaves?

Sound waves need to be converted into electrical signals before they can be transmitted by radio waves. This is typically done by using a microphone to capture the sound waves and convert them into electrical signals that can then be modulated onto a radio frequency carrier wave for transmission.


What does not belong in the electromagnetic spectrum x-ray or sound or infrared ray or radio wave?

Sound does not belong in the electromagnetic spectrum as it is a mechanical wave that requires a medium (such as air, water, or solid materials) to propagate, unlike x-rays, infrared rays, and radio waves which are forms of electromagnetic radiation that can travel through a vacuum.


What three things affect the frequency of a sound wave?

The three things that affect the frequency of a sound wave are the source of the sound (vibration frequency), the medium through which the sound wave is traveling (speed of sound in the medium), and the relative motion between the source of the sound and the observer (Doppler effect).


What electromagnetic spectrum is used for radio broadcasting?

Radio wave brings the information into the TV set from which the sound and pictureare reconstructed.Light wave carries the picture ("video") information from the screen to your eyes.

The main difference between a radio wave and a sound wave is their different?

They're very different. A sound wave is a longitudinal wave and a radio wave is a transverse wave, radio waves are in the same family as light because they're electromagnetic waves whereas sound waves are just caused by particles passing on a vibration.


What is the different between radio wave and electromagnet wave?

No difference at all. Radio waves are one of many types of electromagnetic waves.


The difference between a low amplitude sound wave and a high amplitude sound wave is what?

The difference is that a low wave have long and smooth wave and a high wave has skinny and cramped togetther waves


Is a radio wave a sound wave?

Radio waves are electromagnetic radiation.


The main difference between a radio wave and a light wave is its?

The main difference between a radio wave and a light wave is their wavelengths. Light waves have shorter wavelengths compared to radio waves. Additionally, light waves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be seen by the human eye, whereas radio waves are typically used for communication and have longer wavelengths.


What does a decoder do in a radio?

The decoder seperates the sound wave from the rest of the radio wave.


Which travel faster a radio wave or sound wave?

A radio wave travels about 874,000 times as fast as a sound wave,plus it doesn't need any material to move through, as sound does.


What is the main difference between radio wave and a light wave?

The difference is their wavelengths. That means that their frequencies are different, and also the amount of energy carried by each photon.


What is the difference between a loud and soft sound?

Sound is actually a vibration in the air which travels in the form of a wave. The larger the amplitude of the wave, the "louder" the sound. the smaller the amplitude of the wave, the "softer" the sound.


What are the properties of a radio wave?

Properties of radio wave ar: sound, uses of antenna, hz.


What is the difference between a sound wave that is transverse and one that is longitudinal?

A transverse sound wave moves up and down or side to side, while a longitudinal sound wave moves back and forth in the same direction as the wave travels.
