A towel waving is a mechanical motion, as it involves the physical movement of the towel due to forces applied by the person waving it. Electromagnetic forces are not directly involved in the waving of a towel.

Is a towel waving a mechanical wave or electromagnetic wave?

-- There is nothing electric or magnetic about a towel. -- It doesn't use batteries or photovoltaic cells, it doesn't attract charged objects, and when you hang it up and it's free to turn, it shows no tendency to point north. -- It doesn't glow in the dark, shock you when you touch it, or pick up radio signals. -- It doesn't generate electric current, make cross-hatch lines on the TV picture, or heat a piece of meatloaf wrapped in it. -- If you pick it up with your hand and wave it with your arm, then it waves. -- This all sounds pretty mechanical.


NOT one of the waves of the electromagnetic spectrum?

Sound waves are not part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Sound waves are mechanical waves that require a medium to travel through, such as air, water, or solids, while electromagnetic waves can travel through a 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.

Which of the following is not a mechanical wave' a transverse a longitudinal or a electromagnetic?

Electromagnetic waves are not mechanical waves, as they do not require a medium (such as air or water) to propagate. Transverse and longitudinal waves, on the other hand, are mechanical waves that require a medium to travel through.
