Very similar, electromagnetic radiation is the term for all sorts of waves and how they move and their properties. Electromagnetic energy is the amount of energy contained in a given wave. The equation energy=wavelength*frequency gives the answer. Basically how big and how many waves their are determine how energetic the wave is.

∙ 11y agoRadio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
Other electromagnetic waves have names like microwave, infrared, heat, yellow light,
orange light, violet light, ultraviolet, X-rays, gamma rays.
The only difference between any of them is that they all have different frequencies.
That's also the same as saying they all have different wavelengths.
