There are many ways of classifying waves. One of those ways are by categorizing them by their ability or inability to transmit energy through a vacuum. The two categories are electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves. Light is an electromagnetic wave, which has the ability to travel through a vacuum (empty space). Sound is a mechanical wave, it needs to travel through a medium (air, water, etc.) However, if you're looking for waves categorized by their wave length, they are (Going from shortest wavelength to longest.. Keep in mind, the shorter the wave length, the more energy it has): a) Gamma Rays b) X-Rays c) Ultra Violet Rays d) Visible Light e) Infrared f) Microwaves g) Radio Waves (p.s. These are electromagnetic waves)
What else can I help you with?
What are the three different types of waves?
The three different types of waves are mechanical waves, electromagnetic waves, and matter waves.
What are the two types of waves in radio waves and gamma rays?
The two types of waves in radio waves are AM (amplitude modulation) and FM (frequency modulation). In gamma rays, there are no different types of waves as they are all high-energy electromagnetic waves.
What are the two types of surface wave?
The three types of seismic waves are:P waves, S waves, and Surface waves
Does the Doppler effect occur for only some types of waves or all types of waves?
The Doppler effect can occur for all types of waves, including sound waves, light waves, and water waves. It describes the change in frequency or wavelength of a wave as the source or observer is in motion relative to each other.
Is inference a property of only some types of waves or of all types of waves?
Inference is a property of all types of waves. It refers to the phenomenon where two or more waves overlap, combining their amplitudes to form a resulting wave pattern. This occurs whether the waves are sound waves, light waves, or any other type of wave.
What are the different types of earthquakes waves?
The three types of earthquake waves are primary waves, surface waves, and secondary waves.
