No, a radio wave is not an example of a mechanical wave. A mechanical wave requires a medium to travel through, such as water or air, while a radio wave can travel through a vacuum because it is an electromagnetic wave.
Ultraviolet (UV) waves are a form of electromagnetic radiation, not mechanical waves. They have shorter wavelengths than visible light and are classified as ionizing radiation because they have enough energy to remove an electron from an atom or molecule. UV waves are commonly associated with sun exposure and are used in various applications, including sterilization and fluorescence.
Yes, a mechanical wave can be a transverse wave. In a transverse wave, the wave particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, causing the wave to move in a series of crests and troughs. This is in contrast to a longitudinal wave, where the wave particles oscillate parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
An infrared wave has less energy than an ultraviolet wave. Ultraviolet waves have higher frequencies and shorter wavelengths, carrying more energy than infrared waves.
A mechanical wave is a type of wave that requires a medium, such as a solid, liquid, or gas, to propagate. The medium is the substance through which the wave travels, carrying energy from one place to another. Examples of mechanical waves include sound waves and seismic waves.
Yes.
A tidal wave is a water wave so it is a mechanical wave.
A mechanical wave.
Yes, an ocean wave is a mechanical wave, since the water is the medium of the wave.
Mechanical wave needs a medium to travel. Examples :- Sound Wave, Seismic Wave etc.
a wave that is about the size of a virus is ultraviolet a wave.
No, a radio wave is not an example of a mechanical wave. A mechanical wave requires a medium to travel through, such as water or air, while a radio wave can travel through a vacuum because it is an electromagnetic wave.
A mechanical wave generally does NOT require a medium to propagate.
Sound propagates through a longitudinal wave, a type of mechanical wave.
Visible light.
Yes, a sound wave is a mechanical wave. Sound waves need a medium (like air) to travel through. The energy of the wave, the mechanical energy, is transferred into the medium through which it is propagated.
yes, it is. But mechanical waves can be as well as non longitudinal!
