I'm pretty sure that they travel in parabolas, although honestly I'm tyring to find the same out for myself. The waves themselves are sin/cosine (I always forget) curves.
ADDED.
No, like light, they travel in straight lines, though can be imagined as an infinite number of thin rays fanning out from their source. They are described for analysis as sine curves so their 0-level points start at 0 s. in time, but the cosine curve is the same shape as its companion sine curve, simply displaced by 90º forwards. (Sin 0º = 1, Sin 90º = 1; but Cos 0º = 1, Cos 90º = 0)
What else can I help you with?
Do microwaves or radiowaves have longer wavelengths?
Radiowaves have longer wavelengths than microwaves. Microwaves typically have wavelengths ranging from 1 millimeter to 1 meter, while radiowaves have wavelengths longer than 1 meter.
What is an example of an electromagnetic wave?
Light is an example of an electromagnetic wave. It is a type of energy that can travel through a vacuum and does not require a medium for propagation.
What can you use radiowaves for?
Radio waves are used for communication through radio broadcasting, television broadcasting, radar, GPS systems, and wireless networks like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. They are also used for heating in microwave ovens and medical applications like MRI scans.
Do radiowaves have long or short wave length?
Radio waves typically have long wavelengths ranging from several millimeters to several meters. Their long wavelengths enable them to travel long distances and penetrate obstacles such as buildings, making them useful for communication over long distances.
What happens when a metal TV aerial absorbs a radio wave?
When a metal TV aerial absorbs a radio wave, the wave's energy is converted into a tiny electrical current in the antenna. This current is then used to produce an electrical signal that the TV tuner can interpret and translate into audio or video content for the viewer to watch on the TV screen.
When was Radiowaves created?
Radiowaves was created on 1997-09-16.
What is the name of the wave that can travel through vacuum and how does it related to television?
Electromagnetic waves can travel in a vacuum. Radiowaves, which are used in television signals, are one part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Does sound travel in a wave?
yes sound travels in a wave known as the soundwave like many others(radiowaves,microwaves,and heatwaves)
What kind of light is the slowest?
Radiowaves is the slowest light in movement. Radiowaves might not seem like light, but that would only be because our eyes can only detect the colors of the visible spectrum, not other kinds of light like radiowaves, infrared light, and X-Rays.Sorry.That's a good list of various forms of electromagnetic radiation ... visible, radio, x-rays, etc.They all travel at the same speed.
Do microwaves or radiowaves have longer wavelengths?
Radiowaves have longer wavelengths than microwaves. Microwaves typically have wavelengths ranging from 1 millimeter to 1 meter, while radiowaves have wavelengths longer than 1 meter.
How are radiowaves detected?
By a satellite dish
What is an example of an electromagnetic wave?

What energy is it when a radio plays?
radiowaves doiih
What is before microwaves in electromagnetic spectrum?
radiowaves
What led to the creation of the television?
radios and radiowaves
Do laptops use microwaves or radiowaves?
PENIS
Is sunlight and radiowaves a good example of compression waves?
No, sunlight and radiowaves are not compression waves. Sunlight consists of electromagnetic waves, while radiowaves are a type of electromagnetic wave in the radio frequency range. Compression waves are mechanical waves that require a medium to propagate, such as sound waves.
