 |
Electromagnetic waves result when a charged object is accelerated or decelerated.
Electromagnetic waves include radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, and gamma rays. The energy of electromagnetic waves is carried in packets whose magnitude is inversely proportional to the wavelength. |

|
Waves, including sound and seismic waves, waves on water and light waves, have energy and can transfer energy when they interact with matter. |

 |
Sound is produced by vibrating objects. The pitch of the sound can be varied by changing the rate of vibration. |
