Radio waves and light are the same exact physical phenomenon, and

differ only in their wavelength (frequency). Their speeds are identical.

How does the speed of radio waves compare with the speed of infrared waves?

Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is the fastest speed possible in a vacuum. Infrared waves also travel at the speed of light, so both types of waves travel at the same speed.


Do radio waves travel through vacuum fasetr than visible light waves?

No, radio waves and visible light waves both travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, which is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. The speed of light is constant, regardless of the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation.


Compared to the velocity of radio waves the velocity of visible light waves is?

The velocity of visible light waves is the same as the velocity of radio waves in a vacuum, both traveling at the speed of light (approximately 299,792 kilometers per second).


How does the speed of visible light compare with the speed of gamma rays when both speeds are maeasured in a vacuum?

If both of them are in the same substance, then their speeds are equal.


How fast are radio signals compared to other forms of electromagnetic waves?

Radio signals travel at the speed of light, which is the fastest speed possible for electromagnetic waves. This means that radio signals travel at the same speed as other forms of electromagnetic waves, such as visible light and X-rays.


How does the speed of radio waves compare with the speed of infrared waves?

Radio waves travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 300,000 kilometers per second in a vacuum. Infrared waves also travel at the speed of light, so both types of waves travel at the same speed.


Do radio waves travel at the same speed of visible light in a vacuum?

Yes, radio waves travel at the same speed as visible light in a vacuum, which is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second (about 186,282 miles per second). Both are forms of electromagnetic radiation and, according to the principles of physics, all electromagnetic waves propagate through a vacuum at this constant speed. However, they differ in wavelength and frequency, with radio waves having longer wavelengths and lower frequencies compared to visible light.


Is the speed of radio waves greater then visible waves?

no.


Does one type of light travel faster then another in a vacuum?

In a vacuum, all types of light, such as visible light, radio waves, and X-rays, travel at the same speed, which is the speed of light, approximately 299,792 kilometers per second. This is a fundamental property of light in a vacuum known as the speed of light constant.
