11 Δεκ 2012 · Mechanical waves require a medium and include waves on a string, sound waves, and earthquake waves. Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium and include visible light, radio waves, and x-rays. The document also covers wave properties such as amplitude, wavelength, frequency, and speed.
28 Ιαν 2018 · This document provides a review of mechanical and electromagnetic waves. It defines key terms like amplitude, wavelength, crest, and trough related to wave properties. It asks questions to compare how mechanical and electromagnetic waves differ in their propagation and need for a medium.
While mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves differ fundamentally, they share some common features: Wave Parameters: Both types of waves exhibit characteristics such as wavelength, frequency, amplitude, and speed, which play crucial roles in defining their behavior.
Waves that DO NOT NEED matter (medium) to transfer energy Examples: radiation, TV & radio waves, X-rays, microwaves, lasers, energy from the sun, visible light Electromagnetic waves are considered transverse waves because they have similar characteristics; therefore, they have the same parts.
26 Ιουλ 2014 · Mechanical waves: • They are created when a source of energy causes a vibration to travel through a medium. • A vibration is a repeating back-and-forth motion. Electromagnetic waves: • They are produced by constantly changing fields, electric and magnetic. • They are produced when an electric charge vibrates or accelerates. How do they ...
21 Μαρ 2024 · This document provides an introduction to electromagnetic waves. It begins with objectives about discussing how electromagnetic waves are formed, differentiating mechanical waves from electromagnetic waves, and comparing the relative frequencies of different forms of electromagnetic waves.
