波传递能量而不传递物质。横波（如光、水波）振动方向与能量传递方向垂直；纵波（如声波）振动方向平行。
The wave equation is fundamental:
基本波动方程：
wave speed = frequency × wavelength (v = f × λ)
The electromagnetic spectrum, from longest to shortest wavelength: radio, microwave, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-ray, gamma. All travel at the same speed in a vacuum. Applications include communication, cooking, medical imaging and sterilisation.
