What is "electromagnetic waves"

Usage examples of "electromagnetic waves".

My guess is that the Eater uses electromagnetic waves to send signals across itself, so its natural flow rate is not the petty human scale of ten or twenty bits per second.

And so Einstein showed that Planck's guess of lumpy energy actually reflects a fundamental feature of electromagnetic waves: They are composed of particles—.

According to the laws we believed at the time, a hot body ought to give off electromagnetic waves (such as radio waves, visible light, or X rays) equally at all frequencies.

For example, when applied to wave disturbances in a field (such as electromagnetic waves traveling in the electromagnetic field) the uncertainty principle shows that the amplitude of a wave and the speed with which its amplitude changes are subject to the same inverse relationship as are the position and speed of a particle: The more precisely the amplitude is specified the less we can possibly know about the speed with which its amplitude changes.

They consisted of electromagnetic waves that were exceedingly short and therefore of very high frequency.

It took light and other electromagnetic waves seven and a half minutes to travel from sun to moon.

Foyle looked at her once and lowered his eyes in confusion before the blind gaze that could only see him as electromagnetic waves and infrared light.

Relativity, and experiments leading up to it, showed conclusively that there is no aether supporting the propagation of electromagnetic waves, as Einstein writes in the extract from his famous paper that I reproduced in Chapter 2.

We've seen the accelerator effect it has on electromagnetic waves.

Now, this is the normal flow of those mysterious electromagnetic waves.

But, like electromagnetic waves, quantum wave packets emitted from some event travel both forward and backward in time.
