what are cosmic waves and radio waves made of? What's the difference between the two? Can waves like them transfer energy ?
tom riddle said:as momentum and hence must obviously have M(relativistic). does it mean that photons must necessarily be waves to have energy or what?
Radio waves and cosmic waves are types of electromagnetic radiation. They are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which also includes visible light, infrared radiation, ultraviolet radiation, and X-rays. These waves are energy that travels through space in the form of oscillating electric and magnetic fields.
Radio waves and cosmic waves are made of photons, which are particles of energy that have no mass. These photons have different wavelengths and frequencies, which determine the type of wave they are. Radio waves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies, while cosmic waves have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies.
Radio waves and cosmic waves differ in their wavelengths and frequencies. Cosmic waves have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies, while radio waves have longer wavelengths and lower frequencies. Additionally, cosmic waves are produced by high-energy events in space, such as supernovae or black holes, while radio waves are often artificially produced by man-made devices.
No, we cannot see radio waves and cosmic waves with our eyes. However, we can detect them using special instruments, such as radio telescopes and particle detectors. These instruments can convert the waves into other forms of energy, like electrical signals, which we can then observe and study.
Radio waves and cosmic waves have a variety of uses in science and technology. Radio waves are used for communication, such as radio and television broadcasts, as well as in radar systems. Cosmic waves are used in the study of astrophysics and can provide information about the universe and its history. They are also used in medical imaging techniques, such as X-rays and gamma ray scans.
