I am not looking for formulas or references to theories... this is just a general question about how to visualize/explain EM waves.
Are EM waves such as light, radio waves, etc. really more like pulses and we just measure their intensity from a static point as a wave line? I thought I remembered reading something like that somewhere and it seemed to make sense when I tried to think about light "waves" traveling in all directions at once.
