What can sound waves not travel trough?
A perfect vacuum
What state of matter travels through waves?
It depends. Is it a mechanical wave or a electromagnetic wave? Mechanical waves (for example sound waves) travel trough every state of matter and they can't exist without matter. They don't travel through vacuum. Electromagnetic waves travel trough space and get interrupted only by other electromagnetic waves.
What Wave that can travel trough empty space?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio waves, can travel through empty space because they do not require a medium to propagate. This is due to their self-sustaining electric and magnetic fields that enable them to travel through the vacuum of space.
Can compressional waves travel through a vacuum?
No, compressional waves require a medium to travel through, so they cannot travel through a vacuum where there is no matter. Sound waves, which are compressional waves, cannot propagate through a vacuum.
The velocity of sound in vacuum is?
The velocity of sound in vacuum is 0 m/s because sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. In the absence of a medium, sound waves cannot propagate and therefore, there is no velocity of sound in vacuum.
Can micro waves travel through a vacuum?
Yes, microwaves can travel through a vacuum because they are a form of electromagnetic radiation, which can propagate through empty space. This is why microwave communication works in space and is used in satellite communications.
What is the related to the vibrations of an electrical charge or magnetic field that produces electromagnetic waves that can travel trough a vacuum such as space?
Electromagnetic waves are related to the vibrations of an electrical charge or magnetic field. These waves consist of synchronized oscillations of electric and magnetic fields that propagate through space at the speed of light. This allows them to travel through a vacuum like space.
Why can electromagnetic wave travel trough space and not sound waves?
Sound waves are compression waves, not radiation waves. Compression waves require a medium in which to travel, air, rock, water, anything. Space is a vacuum, hence no medium to transfer the wave from one point to another. Electromagnetic radiation waves travel best without the interference of that medium, which can in cases block the transmission of those waves completely.
What can sound waves not travel in?
sound waves can't travel in a vacuum (space)
It is possible for an electromagnetic wave to travel through a vacuum?
yes, they can travel.
Electromagnetic waves can travel through a?
Vacuum
Which waves cannot travel in a vacuum?
Sound waves cannot travel in a vacuum because they require a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to propagate. In contrast, electromagnetic waves, like light waves, can travel through vacuum because they do not rely on a medium for propagation.
