Describe how electromagnetic waves are formed and travel through space.

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves are formed by the vibration of a charged particle. This movement creates a changing electric field, which in turn generates a changing magnetic field perpendicular to it. These oscillating fields regenerate each other and propagate through space as a transverse wave, meaning they can travel even through a vacuum without a medium.

Which statement can be made about the amplitude of any transverse wave?

A
It is the length from the midpoint to the crest.
B
It is half the length from the midpoint to the trough.
C
It is the length of the wavelength.
D
It is half the length of the wavelength.
