What are the properties of an EM wave? Be sure to answer the following questions: What is it made up of? How are the parts related to one another? What type of wave is it (transverse or longitudinal) and why? Does an EM wave require a medium? If so, then what medium is required for an EM wave? Then list the various types of EM waves in order of increasing frequency. Include a diagram of the EM wave that illustrates your answers and also include the direction of propagation (or the Poynting vector) for the EM wave in your diagram.
