Does light travel in compression waves?

No. It travels as electromagnetic waves. Compression requires a medium that is compressed (and rarefied) but light travels through vacuum.

You mean, travels at 10000 m/s.....if so...Its velocity is 10000m/s


What is velocity of a wave?

How quickly the wave travels


What is the velocity of sound in space?

Sound requires the physical compression and expansion of molecules to be transmitted, it is not electromagnetic energy like light and microwaves. It therefore cannot be transmitted through a vacuum so it cannot have a velocity in space


What does velocity tell you about a moving object?

Velocity tells you what speed a moving object travels at and in what direction.

Just divide the distance by the time. To know the velocity, you would also need to know in what direction the car travels.

Does Light Travel More slowly in a Medium?

Light travels at its maximum velocity c in a vacuum. In a medium with a certain refractive index, it is slowed down and travels with velocity c/index
