Question

State 3 differences between sound waves and micro waves.

Answer 1

Answer:

A Sound wave is a longitudinal wave whereas, electromagnetic waves are transverse waves. Sound is a mechanical vibration that passes through a medium such as gas, liquid or solid to become a sound. Whereas,Electromagnetic waves, also known as EM wave, is the travel path of electromagnetic radiation or EMR...

The second difference is that sound is composed of longitudinal waves (alternate compressions and expansions of matter) and light is composed of transverse waves in an electromagnetic field. ... Sound travels through all substances, but light cannot pass through opaque materials. Frequency affects both sound and light.
