SUMMARY

This discussion explores the potential of radio waves to alter the electric or magnetic properties of metals and liquids, particularly in the context of mobile devices and underwater communication. Participants question the relationship between radio waves and organic tissue structure, suggesting that frequency and distance may influence the effectiveness of these waves. The conversation emphasizes the need for mathematical explanations and coefficients to understand wave functions better. A resource is provided for further reading on the biological effects of RF energy.

So mobile devices use radio waves so I had this thought that if there was evidence linking radio waves with changing organic tissue structure is the evidence that radio waves can be used to change the electric or magnetic properties of metals or liquids? Underwater walk talky jabbering for example? How does water allow or disallow for the passing of radio waves. What kinda wave functions am I trying to find? I'm thinking you got a standard treatment where the frequency can dampen or strengthen given the distance traveled though I don't know of any coefficients for that. Explanations with mathematical equations can be complex if you explain the steps between the primary result equations or link to a text that does. I don't want this to get theory blather closed so knowledgeable comments would be nice.

Thanks for the read?
