Some examples of mechanical waves are Sound, waves in a slinky, and water.
Mechanical waves need matter to move.
Some examples of electromagnetic waves are Radio, Gamma, X-rays, Infra-red, and Microwaves
Electromagnetic waves are able to travel through a medium of liquids, solids, and geaseous states,
or through space where there is no material at all, called "vacuum".

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.
Are light waves electromagnetic or mechanical?
light waves are electromagnetic
What is one major difference between electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves?
Mechanical waves require a medium to travel, where electromagnetic waves do not.
Are tsunami waves electromagnetic?
No, they are mechanical waves.
What is non mechanical wave?
Non mechanical waves are Eletro magnetic waves. We can devide 2 waves. 1 is mechanical waves & 2 is electromagnetic waves. For example Sound is a mechanical wave & Light is an electromagnetic wave.
Sound waves are examples of what?
sound waves are a example of mechanical waves
Are the sun's 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.
Is sunlight and radiowaves a good example of compression waves?
Sunlight and radiowaves are examples of electromagnetic waves, which are transverse mechanical waves. Sound waves are compression waves.
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.
What do waves carry as they move?
mechanical waves carry mechanical energy and electromagnetic waves carry electromagnetic energy.
Are tsunami waves electromagnetic?
No, they are mechanical waves.
