Why does gamma radiation damage body cells but radio waves do not?
The energy of a electromagnetic wave increases as the wavelength decreases. Radio waves have a very long wavelength compared to gamma rays. Since gamma rays have so much energy, they can change molecules by "kicking out" electrons with their energy. Where as radio waves don't have enough energy to effect many compounds.
Does mechinal waves have radio waves?
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves
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.)
How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
Can people disrupt radio waves by standing in front of them?
Yes. Radio waves are electromagnetic and are affected by anything that conducts electricity. The human body is mostly made of water, which conducts electricity and therefore affects radio waves. To demonstrate the effect, see what happens when you move around a radio tuned to a station with relatively poor reception.
Why are radio waves dangerous?
because they ionize the living cells
What are the negatives of radio waves?
penis cells can be deformed if radio waves come in contact with the genitalia.

What happens to radio waves when the dry cells remove?
the radio tranmitted will be cut because they have none dry cell
Do radio and microwaves produce photoelectric effect?
No, radio waves and microwaves do not produce the photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect is the phenomenon where electrons are emitted from a material when it is exposed to light of sufficient frequency (typically ultraviolet or higher). Radio waves and microwaves have lower frequencies and energies than light, so they are not capable of causing the photoelectric effect.
Do Radio waves bend in magnetic fields?
Yes, radio waves can bend in a magnetic field through a phenomenon known as the Faraday effect. When radio waves travel through a magnetic field, the orientation of their electric field can be rotated, causing them to bend. This effect is commonly used in polarization modulation techniques and can impact the propagation of radio signals in certain conditions.
Does mechinal waves have radio waves?
no, mechanical waves are not radio waves

How are electromagnetic waves different to radio waves?
Radio waves ARE electromagnetic waves.
Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Radio waves are transverse waves. This means that the oscillations of the waves are perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer.
Are radar waves visible?
No. Radar waves are one category of radio waves. Think of all the radio waves that are all around you right now . . . AM radio, FM radio, police and fire radio, highway patrol radio, taxi radio, television picture and sound radio waves, cellphone radio waves, garage-door-opener radio waves, bluetooth radio waves, WiFi waves, microwaves ... and you can't see any of them ! Radar waves can easily be there in the group.
