Electromagnetic Waves: Why they are Transverse

In this video I explain some properties of electromagnetic waves (electromagnetic radiation), and why they are transverse, for A Level Physics.

EM waves are all around us, from long wavelength radio waves to gamma radiation emitted from the rocks beneath your feet. These EM waves occur due to oscillations in the electric and magnetic fields.

Thanks for watching,

Lewis
