Question
What is a common method to detect radio waves according to the document?
Explanation
**Radio waves** λ≈10⁻¹ to 10⁴ m, f≈10⁴ to 10⁹ Hz, produced by rapid acceleration/deceleration of electrons in aerials/antenna, used for long-distance communication because low frequency diffracts around obstacles and reflects from ionosphere, enabling ground wave and sky wave propagation, effective for broadcasting. The document lists receiver's aerials as a common method to detect radio waves. Using c = fλ, E₀/B₀ = c, I_d = ε₀ dΦ_E/dt, and spectrum classification λ = c/f, evaluation yields Receiver's aerials, illustrating EM wave transverse nature and Maxwell's displacement current concept.
