Electromagnetic waves carry
- A only energy
- B only particles
- C only momentum
- D energy and momentum both
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) energy and momentum both
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Electromagnetic waves are oscillating electric and magnetic fields that transport energy through space. Because they travel at a finite speed ( \(c\) ), they also possess linear momentum, which allows them to exert radiation pressure on surfaces they strike. D) energy and…
