3. Mechanical waves are caused by wave amplitude and not by frequency. Electromagnetic Waves are produced by vibration of the charged particles. 4. While an electromagnetic wave is called just a disturbance, a mechanical wave is considered a periodic disturbance. Mechanical waves are also called elastic waves as their propagation depends on the elastic properties of the medium through which the waves pass.
