Talk:Waves/Transverse, Longitudinal and Torsional waves

"With the exception of light, waves are undulations in some material medium." Don't all fundamental particles exist as waves like light? Even without the quantum phenomena, there are still other electromagnetic waves, such as radio waves, that are only different from light due to their wavelength.

For light, read electromagnetic radiation. But that's somewhat complex for this level of student.

Also, gravity waves are not transmitted by a media(?) or am I wrong.


 * Gravity waves are relativistic, so classical stuff might not be able to fit it in, but I'm pretty sure that they are waves in spacetime itself, or something like that.216.56.24.130 (discuss) 21:46, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

If you don't know what torsional waves are, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doJExGZO1tc 216.56.24.130 (discuss) 21:46, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
