Question

How are electromagnetic waves different from ocean waves?Question 1 options:Electromagnetic waves move perpendicular to the medium and ocean waves move parallel to the medium.There is not a difference between electromagnetic and ocean waves because they are both mechanical waves.Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium (They can move through space) and ocean waves require a medium.Electromagnetic waves transfer energy and ocean waves transfer motion.

Answer 1

ANSWER

Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium (they can move through space) and ocean waves require a medium.

EXPLANATION

They are two different types of waves. Ocean waves are mechanical waves, which means that they need a medium to move - in this case, water.

On the other hand, electromagnetic waves are another type of wave. They do not need a medium, so they can move across vacuum - like in outer space.
