No. Sound and ocean waves are.
No. Light is an example of an electromagnetic wave, which can travel through a vacuum. Mechanical waves must travel through a medium, and cannot travel through a vacuum.
Sound is an example of a mechanical wave, which requires a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through. It consists of compressions and rarefactions that transmit energy through the medium.
transverse= rope longitudinal= spring surface= water & air
No, a radio wave is not an example of a mechanical wave. A mechanical wave requires a medium to travel through, such as water or air, while a radio wave can travel through a vacuum because it is an electromagnetic 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.
No. Light is an example of an electromagnetic wave, which can travel through a vacuum. Mechanical waves must travel through a medium, and cannot travel through a vacuum.
Sound is a longitudinal wave, as is any other mechanical wave. Light is a transversal wave, as all other Elektromagnetic waves.

No. A light wave is a transverse electromagnetic wave.
Sound is really an example of wave propagation of energy. Energy could be transported by two modes. One is by the particles. A good example is electrical energy in the form of current is carried over by the particles such as electrons. The other one is by wave propagation. Wave too is further divided into mechanical and electromagnetic. Mechanical wave badly needs a material medium to get propagated but electromagnetic does not need a material medium. Sound is an example for mechanical wave and light is an example for electromagnetic 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.
Radio wave is not an example of a mechanical wave because it is an example of an electromagnetic wave. Mechanical waves require a medium to propagate, while electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum.
An example of a transverse wave is light, where the oscillations occur perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. An example of a longitudinal wave is sound, where the oscillations are in the same direction as the wave propagation, causing compression and rarefaction of the medium.
Light is an example of a electromagnetic wave.
Light waves are not considered mechanical waves because they do not require a medium to propagate. Mechanical waves, on the other hand, require a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through. Light waves are electromagnetic waves that can travel through a vacuum.
