Electromagnetic Radiation

Electromagnetic Radiation - Easy to Understand Definition

Energy that travels through space in the form of waves

Real World Example

Imagine you're at a crowded party trying to have a conversation with a friend, but the music is too loud and people are talking over each other. Just like your voice needs to travel through the noise to reach your friend, electromagnetic radiation travels through space in the form of waves to deliver energy. In this analogy, your voice is like the energy, the crowded room is like space, and the way your voice moves through the noise to reach your friend is akin to how waves carry electromagnetic energy across distances.
