No. Only light. bcoz light is a transverse wave where as sound is a longitudinal wave.electromagnetic consist of all transverse waves

Which type of light does the electromagnetic spectrum NOT contain?

The electromagnetic spectrum does not contain sound waves. It includes a range of electromagnetic waves, from radio waves to gamma rays, but does not include mechanical waves like sound.


All waves make up the electromagnetic?

No, not all waves make up the electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum consists of a continuous range of electromagnetic waves that vary in wavelength and frequency, including radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. Other types of waves, such as water waves or sound waves, are not part of the electromagnetic spectrum.


Are sound waves part of the electromagnetic spectrum?

Sound waves and electromagnetic waves are different. Sound is composed of density waves in the air or some other form of matter. Sound is a mechanical compression-rarefaction wave. The different types of electromagnetic waves are gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared radiation, microwaves, and radio waves.


What are the key words for light and sound?

Key words for light include illumination, brightness, photons, and electromagnetic spectrum. Key words for sound include vibration, frequency, pitch, and amplitude.


Can waves of the electromagnetic spectrum travel through a vacuum?

Yes, waves of the electromagnetic spectrum, including visible light and radio waves, can travel through a vacuum. This is because electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to propagate, unlike mechanical waves such as sound waves.

The electromagnetic spectrum includes what?

The electromagnetic spectrum includes electromagnetic waves with a continuous flow of the wavelength.


Sound is not part of the electromagnetic spectrum because?

because sound waves are not a electromagnetic waves because they need a medium for travel....hence electromagnetic spectrum is based on the electromagnetic waves ..like radio waves , micro waves , etc....


Why is sound not part of the electromagnetic spectrum?

Sound is a mechanical wave that requires a medium, such as air or water, to propagate. Electromagnetic waves, on the other hand, do not require a medium and can travel through a vacuum. This fundamental difference in how they travel means that sound is not considered part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Does energy make up sound?

Sound is energy. It is part of the electromagnetic spectrum.


Which ray does not belong in the electromagnetic spectrum?

Sound waves do not belong in the electromagnetic spectrum. Sound waves are mechanical waves that require a medium (such as air or water) to travel through, unlike the electromagnetic waves that can travel through a vacuum.


Can waves of the electromagnetic spectrum travel through a vacuum?

Which band of the electromagnetic spectrum has the lowest frequency?

That would be sound waves, or the audio spectrum.


Why isn't sound a part of the em spectrum?

Sound is a mechanical wave, not an electromagnetic wave.
