What three ways can differ electromagnetic waves from sound waves?
Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature where as sound waves are longitudinal. Electromagnetic waves can pass even through vacuum but sound waves are mechanical waves that means it needs badly a material medium Sound waves can be sensed by ear where as electromagnetic waves are sensed by eyes.
Do electric and magnetic fields make up electromagnetic waves?
Yes, both electric and magnetic fields make up electromagnetic waves. We know that electromagnetic waves (like light) have both an electric and a magnetic component. Both of these components are waves, and they move (propagate) at right angles to each other, and in phase.
What is the transfer of energy as electromagnetic waves?
first of all electromagnetic waves are energy waves. and we call electromagnetic waves RADIATION.
What Waves that can travel through a vacuum?
Electromagnetic waves.
What are five ways electromagnetic waves differ from each other?
need to describe in five ways how electronic waves differ each other
What are the components of electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves are composed of an electronic component and a magnetic component, which propagate perpendicular to one another.
Describe the speed of the various electromagnetic waves in a vacuum?

What are the three electromagnetic waves in the home?
micro waves, gamma rays, and heat waves

What are three properties of waves?
There are different kinds of wave, such as sound waves, electromagnetic waves, water waves etc. So the first property I would describe as the wave medium. Then you would have the additional properties of amplitude and frequency.
Do electric and magnetic fields make up electromagnetic waves?
Yes, both electric and magnetic fields make up electromagnetic waves. We know that electromagnetic waves (like light) have both an electric and a magnetic component. Both of these components are waves, and they move (propagate) at right angles to each other, and in phase.
Are the sun's rays mechanical waves or electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves
How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
How are electromagnetic waves transfered?
Electromagnetic waves are transferred by electromagnetic radiation.
