What exactly is radio

The mirrors show in the sketch below are superfluous, as all the light is emitted in one direction anyway." From:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halbach_array So we have the light like the radio waves: Monocromatic and coherent. But it is not from plain lasers. S* nothing is perfect. even radio waves are not perfectly monochromatic and hence not perfectly coherent either. but they are close enough that we can tell they are the same phenomenon, they are all electromagnetic waves and obey the same laws. Nobody know what the EM waves are. See what Maxwell wrote: "I propose now to examine magnetic phenomena from a mecha nical point of view, and to determine what tensions in, or motions of, a medium are capable of producing the mechanical pheno mena observed. If, by the same hypothesis, we can connect the phenomena of magnetic attraction with electromagnetic phe nomena and with those of induced currents, we shall have found a theory which, if not true, can only be proved to be erroneous by experiments which will greatly enlarge our knowledge of this part of physics. " From: http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/On_Phy...Lines_of_Force Our knowledge is enlarged enough to say: Now we can tell that light. radio waves and sound are the same phenomenon and obey the same laws.
