Emergency broadcasting, for one. You cannot beat radio as the cheapest way to communicate to the masses. A radio can be portable, entertaining, and working in most locations. The radio is a mature technology and the device is very inexpensive. A radio does not require a lot of energy to run -- a hand-crank one can work too.
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
Electromagnetic waves used for communication include radio waves, microwaves, and light waves (in the form of lasers). These waves are commonly used in technologies such as radio communication, satellite communication, Wi-Fi, and fiber optic communication.
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.
Radio waves are generally considered to be harmless to human health at typical exposure levels. However, high levels of exposure, such as those from certain medical devices or industrial equipment, can potentially cause health risks.
Radio Waves! (:
Not very. As far as I know there's no real evidence that radio waves cause any measurable harm to people.
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
Radio waves are harmful to people because they give off radiation. Radiation is known to cause cancer in humans.
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.
Radio waves have the longest wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves can be longer than a football field or as short as a football. Radio waves do more than just bring music to your radio. They also carry signals for your television and cellular phones
Light and heat are very helpful to human beings, and radio has become pretty important too.
by changing the amplitude or frequency of the radio waves.
Radio waves are electromagnetic waves occurring on the radio frequency portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
That's like asking "What is different between children and people ?".Radio waves are electromagnetic waves.
