Electromagnetic radiation
- a form of energy that has wavelike properties - all forms found in the electromagnetic spectrum Examples of electromagnetic radiation: Xrays Microwaves Light waves Radio waves – when you hear static on the radio when you aren’t getting a signal, that is the leftover microwaves from the big bang 15 billion years ago (it is cooling off so now the waves are the energy and wavelength of radio waves)
