daniton Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 why is energy transfer in the form of wave? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansont Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Context, please. In e.g. a collision, the energy transfer is not in the form of a wave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniton Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 my point is why energy choose to behave like wave... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scienziato Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 please make clear are you asking about energy as electromagnetic waves? Well there exist wave-particle duality in everything. Anything having very large wavelength will have its wave like properties significant and anything having a large mass and in turn negligible wavelength will have its particle like properties visible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansont Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 my point is why energy choose to behave like wave... It doesn't. Energy isn't a substance, it's a property. You need to give an example of what you're thinking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
