Undergrad Where do electromagnetic waves get their energy from?
We know that EMW are generated by accelerating charges. If I accelerate a charge it should gain kinetic energy equal to half the mass of the charge times velocity squared. But at the same time it will radiate electromagnetic waves which carry energy itself. So where does this energy come from...- radio171
