Radio waves
The wavelengths of radio waves are long compared to other types of
electromagnetic waves—they range in length from 10,000 kilometers to less
than a meter.
Human-made radio waves are generated when electrons, which are negatively
charged, move back and forth within an antenna. This movement of charged
particles creates a field that radiates out from the antenna at the speed of light.
