Can waves transfer energy through liquids and solids but not through gases or empty space?
Some waves can transfer energy only through liquids and solids, but not through gases or vacuum. Some waves, like sound waves, can transfer energy through gases, liquids and solids but not through vacuum. And some waves, notably electromagnetic waves, can transfer energy through vacuum as well as matter.
What do waves transport over great distances out of solids gases liquids and energy?
energy
How acoustics is related to physics?
Acoustics is the study of sound, ultrasound and infrasound, that is, waves in gases, liquids, and solids.
Do sound waves travel better through solids liquids of gas?
Sound waves travel fastest through solids as the molecules are tightly paced in solids. While in LIQUIDS and GASES molecules are far apart and there is a lesser chance of molecules striking one another.
Why does the sound travel faster in solids than liquid and gases?
because molecules of solids are closer than the molecules of liquids or gases and hence compressions and rarefactions of sound waves are transferred more quickly in solids.
What are the mediums that waves can travel through?
Waves can travel through many media, depending on their nature. Sound waves can go through solids, liquids and gases. Transverse shock waves can only travel through solids. Electromagnetic waves can go through some solids, liquids or gases, or through a vacuum.
What waves travel through solids liquids and gases?
Seismic waves travel through solids, liquids, and gases.
Which of these could act as mediums solids liquids gases and or empty spaces?
all of them are; except, empty space can only be a medium to electromagnetic waves
What can s waves not travel through?
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D

Do sound waves go faster in solids liquids or gases?
solids because the atoms are closer together
Do sound waves travel through solids or liquids or gases or all three?
yes it does
What do waves transport over great distances out of solids gases liquids and energy?
energy
A seismogram shows that p waves travel?
P waves travel through solids, liquids, and gases. it is the fastest of all the waves.
How acoustics is related to physics?
Acoustics is the study of sound, ultrasound and infrasound, that is, waves in gases, liquids, and solids.
What is the fastest seismic wave that travels through solids liquids and gases?
Primary: aka P-waves
How does sound waves travel?
Sound waves travel though mediums. Solids , liquids , and gas . It also travels though transverse and longitudinal. Also travel through the air......
