What else can I help you with?
Why can light waves carry more information then radio waves?
Light waves have much shorter wavelengths compared to radio waves, allowing them to carry more information in the same amount of space. Additionally, light waves can be modulated at a higher frequency, enabling a larger amount of data to be transmitted. This makes light waves more suitable for high-speed data transmission and communication systems.
Why are sound waves more affected by temperature variations than radio waves?
Sound is effected by air pressure and temperature and the movement of the source. Light and radio waves are virtually unaffected by the air.
What has longer wavelength radio waves or visible light?
Neither is nesesarily longer a wave can go on forever. Visible light is more reflective than infared light so it will last longer. If you are talking about wavelength, infared lights wavelength is longer.
Why do radio waves diffract around building's while light waves do not?
Light waves do diffract, but the effect is very very small. In general diffraction effects are important when the object interacting with the wave has dimensions that are comparable to the wavelength of the wave. Light waves have much shorter wavelength compared to the radio waves. Hence the effect. (It should also be noted that radio waves penetrate buildings much better than light waves, but that leads to a more nuanced discussion of diffraction effects.)
What is waves that are very long and do not have much light energy?
These are likely radio waves, which have long wavelengths and are used for communication and broadcasting. They carry less energy than shorter wavelengths like visible light waves.
Does your body emit radio waves?
Our eyes cannot sense radio waves. Although radio waves, visible light waves, X-rays and gamme rays are all part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum, our eyes are only equipped to detect the part of the spectrum known as visible light.
What can radio waves do that visible light cannot?
Radio waves can penetrate obstacles like walls and buildings more effectively than visible light. They are also able to travel longer distances and can be easily transmitted through the Earth's atmosphere. Additionally, radio waves are used in communication technologies such as radar and broadcasting, which are not feasible with visible light.
Do radio waves disturb matter?
Radio waves will disturb matter which is more or less on the order of magnitude of the wavelength of the waves.
What is the difference between radio waves and gramma waves?
The wavelength of radio waves are on the magnitude of 10^4 meters, while gamma rays have a far shorter wavelength of around 10^-14. This implies that gamma rays carry a lot more energy than radio waves, due to their frequency being much higher than that of radio wave frequencies.
Do microwaves have more or less energy than radio waves?
Microwaves have more energy than radio waves. They have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies, which results in more energy being carried by microwaves compared to radio waves.
What are radiowaves and how they are formed?
Radio waves Radio waves are electromagnetic waves occurring on the radio frequency portion of theelectromagnetic spectrum.Discovery and utilizationRadio waves were first predicted by mathematical work done in 1865 by James Clerk Maxwell. Maxwell noticed wavelike properties of light and similarities in electrical and magnetic observations. He then proposed equations, that described light waves and radio waves as waves of electromagnetism that travel in space. In 1887, Heinrich Hertzdemonstrated the reality of Maxwell's electromagnetic waves by experimentally generating radio waves in his laboratory. Many inventions followed, making practical the use of radio waves to transfer information through space. Nikola Tesla and Guglielmo Marconi are credited with inventing systems to allow radio waves to be used for communication.For more information go to:http:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_waves
Why do am radio waves diffract more than FM radio waves?
AM radio waves have longer wavelengths compared to FM radio waves. This means that AM waves are better able to diffract around obstacles and travel farther distances. FM radio waves, with their shorter wavelengths, are less prone to diffraction and tend to travel in straight lines, making them more susceptible to obstacles blocking their path.
