Question

write 5 difference between mechanical wave and non mechanical wave.​

Answer 1

Answer:

If that something is a particle then that wave is called as a Mechanical Wave (e.g., Sound Wave) and if that something is not a particle or something else (like Electric or Magnetic Field) than that wave is called as a Non-Mechanical Wave (e.g., Electromagnetic Wave).

Answer 2

Explanation:

Mechanical Waves :

1. Particles of mechanical waves move parallel to each other.

2. It requires a medium for their propagation. Hence, it cannot travel through vacuum.

3. Are the type of longitudinal wave.

4. Eg. sound wave.

Non- mechanical waves :

1. Particles of non mechanical waves moves perpendicular to each other.

2. It did not require any medium for the propagation. Hence, it can travel through vacuum.

4. Are the type of transverse wave.

5. Eg. light wave.
