How are electromagnetic or light waves different from water and sound waves?
Light waves and electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space. Water waves can only travel through matter. Hope this helped!
How do sound waves travel compared to light waves?
light waves fast
How are water waves different from electromagnetic waves?
electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum while water waves travel in water.
Did waves carries energy?
most kinds of waves need something to travel through. Water waves, for example, travel along the surface of the water. A wave can even travel along a rope. Gases (such as air), liquids (such as water), and solids (such as rope) , all act as mediums. Waves that require a medium through which travel are called mechanical waves.Some waves do not require a medium to travel through. Light can travel and carry energy through empty space. Waves that can travel without a medium are called electromagnetic waves. :)
Do sound waves or light waves travel faster?
In air, light waves travel about 871 thousand times faster than sound waves.
What do the light waves travel more when they enter in water?
eletromagnetic waves
What do light waves travel more through when they enter water?
they travel faster. Light waves travel more QUICKLY as they enter water. ^^ whoever done this;; thanks! i really needed the answer....
Light waves travel more as they enter water?
yes they travel faster :)
How are electromagnetic (or light) waves different from water and sound waves?

Can light waves travel better in water or air?
Since air has a lower optical density than water, light waves can travel faster in air.
How do light waves affect matter?
light waves travel through a matter, such as air water and others
Do light waves travel faster as they enter water?
Faster than what ? Their speed may increase or decrease at the boundary, depending on the medium they're leaving, i.e. what they were in before they arrived at the water.
Why doesn't light travel as straight or far in water as in air?
There are more things for the light waves to bounce off of in water, so light can not travel in a straight line or as far.
How do sound waves travel compared to light waves?
light waves fast
