electromagnetic waves are wave that do not require a material medium for their propagation while mechanical wave requires a material medium for example light wave is an electromagnetic wave it does not require any material medium(depends on air or water)for their propagation i.e even in the absence of air light will still travel... sound wave is a mechanical wave because sound do not travel in a vacuum....
What else can I help you with?
Which of the following distinguishes electromagnetic from mechanical waves?
They don't require a medium to travel through. - apex ....what a wanker
Electromagnetic waves are not mechanical waves which means they can travel in a?
vacuum
What is the reason for ultrasonic waves not being in the form of electromagnetic waves?
Ultrasonic waves are high frequency sonic waves. They're sound, which is mechanical energy. Electromagnetic waves are waves of electromagnetic energy, like radio waves or light. Mechanical energy is different from electromagnetic energy, hence the reason for ultrasonic waves not taking the form of electromagnetic waves.
What are two types of waves and What can they travel through?
Two types of waves are mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves. Mechanical waves require a medium (solid, liquid, or gas) to travel through, while electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum, such as outer space.
Is sunlight and radiowaves a good example of compression waves?
No, sunlight and radiowaves are not compression waves. Sunlight consists of electromagnetic waves, while radiowaves are a type of electromagnetic wave in the radio frequency range. Compression waves are mechanical waves that require a medium to propagate, such as sound waves.
What distinguishes waves from mechanical waves?
Mechanical waves require a medium for their propagation whereas electromagnetic waves require a medium for their propagation.

What distinguishes a light wave from all other mechanical waves?
Light waves are electromagnetic waves that do not require a medium to travel through, unlike mechanical waves which require a medium such as air or water. This means that light waves can travel through a vacuum, such as outer space, while mechanical waves cannot.
Are suns rays mechanical waves or electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves
How mechanical and electromagnetic wave are different?
The biggest difference is that mechanical waves require a medium to travel through and electromagnetic waves do not.
How are electromagnetic waves different from all other waves, specifically mechanical waves?
Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to travel through, unlike mechanical waves which do. Additionally, electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum, while mechanical waves cannot.
Which types of these waves is not a mechanical wave?
Examples of mechanical waves are waves in the ocean and sound waves from devices like mouths, trombones, and radios. Electromagnetic waves like sunshine and X-rays are not mechanical waves because matter is not doing the waving.
What do waves carry as they move?
mechanical waves carry mechanical energy and electromagnetic waves carry electromagnetic energy.
How are electromagnetic wave and mechanical waves different?
The biggest difference is that mechanical waves require a medium to travel through and electromagnetic waves do not.
How are em waves different from mechanical waves?
mechanical waves need a medium to travel through, electromagnetic waves do not. Electromagnetic waves can travel through space, mechanical waves can not.:PElectromagnetic waves do not require a medium, but mechanical waves do.
How do electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves differ, and what are examples of each type of wave?
Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to travel through, while mechanical waves do. Examples of electromagnetic waves include light and radio waves, while examples of mechanical waves include sound and seismic waves.
Which of the following is not a mechanical wave' a transverse a longitudinal or a electromagnetic?
Electromagnetic waves are not mechanical waves, as they do not require a medium (such as air or water) to propagate. Transverse and longitudinal waves, on the other hand, are mechanical waves that require a medium to travel through.
