"Visible" light is the only kind of electromagneticenergy waves you can see. But it's not
the only kind of energy wave you can see.
You can certainly see ocean waves in the water, seismic waves in the land, standing waves
on a guitar string, and traveling waves running up and down a long guy-wire.

The only kind of energy waves that can be seen by the human eye are visible light waves. These waves have wavelengths that fall within the range of approximately 400 to 700 nanometers, allowing them to be detected by the photoreceptors in our eyes.
Electromagnetic energy, such as light and radio waves, cannot be seen or smelled because it does not have a scent and is not visible to the naked eye.
Those waves are called ultraviolet (UV) waves. UV waves have shorter wavelengths and higher energy compared to visible light waves.
One example of energy that cannot be seen or touched is electromagnetic energy, such as radio waves or microwaves. These forms of energy are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are typically detected using specialized equipment like antennas or receivers.
You cannot physically see sound energy as it is a form of energy that is transmitted through waves of compression and rarefaction in a medium, such as air. However, you can visualize sound waves using specialized equipment like oscilloscopes or by using software that translates sound waves into visual representations.
ocean waves get their energy from wind, the faster the wind and the longer the fetch the bigger the waves, low pressure systems, cold fronts and other weather systems generate most waves the sun is the main source of energy though it makes the wind stronger or weakerthey are energy
