Non mechanical waves are Eletro magnetic waves. We can devide 2 waves. 1 is mechanical waves & 2 is electromagnetic waves. For example Sound is a mechanical wave & Light is an electromagnetic wave.

What is a non mechanical wave?

It is a wave or transfer of energy that does not require a physical medium. The only type of non-mechanical wave known is electromagnetic. non-mechanical waves are composed of electric waves and magnetic waves.


Is a tidal wave a mechanical wave?

A tidal wave is a water wave so it is a mechanical wave.


A wave that requires a medium to travel?

A mechanical wave, such as a sound wave or a water wave, requires a medium to travel because it relies on the vibration or movement of particles in the medium to propagate energy. Without a medium, these waves cannot transfer their energy.

Is a radio wave a example of a mechanical 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 genrally does NOT?

A mechanical wave generally does NOT require a medium to propagate.


What is the difference between mechanical wave and non mechanical?

Mechanical waves require a medium (such as air, water, or a solid material) to propagate, while non-mechanical waves can travel through a vacuum, such as electromagnetic waves. Mechanical waves involve the transfer of energy through the vibration of particles in the medium, while non-mechanical waves involve the transfer of energy in the form of oscillating electric and magnetic fields.


What is the name of the mechanical wave that sound propagates with?
