State differences between mechanical and electromagnetic waves
State differences between mechanical and electromagnetic waves
Mechanical wave | Electromagnetic waves |
– Need material medium for propagation
– Propagate at relatively low speed – Have longer wavelength – Are due to vibration or oscillation of particles in transmitting medium. |
– Can propagate in vacuum
– Propagate as very high speed – Shorter wavelength – Are due to vibration in electric and magnetic field |
