An electromagnetic (EM) wave is not a sound wave. A sound wave is mechanical energy, and an electromagnetic wave is electromagnetic energy. The EM wave could be a radio or light wave, but in any case, it is composed of moving electric and magnetic fields. This electromagnetic wave can move through air or the vacuum of space, but sound (or any mechanical wave) must have a medium to travel through.
Differences between Sound Waves And Electromagnetic Waves. 1  A Sound wave is a longitudinal wave whereas, electromagnetic waves are transverse waves. 2  Sound is a mechanical vibration that passes through a medium such as gas, liquid or solid to become a sound.aves that does not need any medium or matter to travel through, and travels through space, are called electromagnetic waves. Sound waves. Sound is a mechanical wave that results from the back and forth vibration of the particles of the medium through which the sound wave is moving.
