Radio waves can have wavelengths from a few millimeters to thousands of kilometers, depending on the frequency. In general, the lower the frequency of a radio wave, the longer its wavelength. This can vary significantly in size, but in many cases, radio waves are considered relatively large compared to other forms of electromagnetic radiation.
Radio telescopes have to be very large in order to effectively capture and study radio waves from space because radio waves have long wavelengths and low energy, requiring a large collecting area to gather enough of them for analysis. The larger the telescope, the more radio waves it can collect, allowing for more detailed and accurate observations of celestial objects.
Yes, the sun does emit radio waves as part of its electromagnetic radiation. These radio waves are a form of energy emitted by the sun, along with visible light and other forms of radiation. Radio telescopes can be used to capture and study these radio waves emitted by the sun.
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
No, electromagnetic waves that are felt as heat are called infrared waves, not radio waves. Radio waves have lower frequencies and longer wavelengths than infrared waves.
Radio sound is heard through the use of radio waves, which are electromagnetic waves that can carry information from one point to another. These waves are transmitted from a radio station and received by a radio receiver, such as a radio or smartphone, which then converts the waves into sound waves that we can hear.
Gamma rays are very high energetic rays whereas radio waves are very weak in strength. However, radio waves can travel far distances and have large wavelength. Radio waves have large application in the field of telecommunication.

In a radio telescope, radio waves strike a large curved dish, which reflects and focuses the waves onto a receiver at the focal point. The receiver then converts the radio waves into electrical signals that can be processed and analyzed by astronomers. This allows scientists to study celestial objects and phenomena in the radio frequency range.
yes
they use radio waves to pick up some what satellite images or existance of things in space
Yes, the sun does emit radio waves as part of its electromagnetic radiation. These radio waves are a form of energy emitted by the sun, along with visible light and other forms of radiation. Radio telescopes can be used to capture and study these radio waves emitted by the sun.
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
No. Radar waves are one category of radio waves. Think of all the radio waves that are all around you right now . . . AM radio, FM radio, police and fire radio, highway patrol radio, taxi radio, television picture and sound radio waves, cellphone radio waves, garage-door-opener radio waves, bluetooth radio waves, WiFi waves, microwaves ... and you can't see any of them ! Radar waves can easily be there in the group.
I never heard of a "satellite wave". If you mean the radio waves used by satellites for communication - well, like all radio waves used for such purposes, there is probably a large range of waves they can use.
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves occurring on the radio frequency portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
