Does Heat move through all matter at the same rate?

No it does not


Both mechanical waves and EM waves interact with a change in what?

All waves move energy, not matter. All waves are created by vibrations. Mechanical waves are caused by vibrating matter such as vocal chords or a drum. EM waves are created by vibrating electrons in atoms that propogate through the electric and magnetic fields that exist everywhere in the universe. All waves can reflect, refract. and diffract. This is where the similarities end. Both types of waves interact with matter and experience a change in velocity but do not interact with each other. Mechanical waves require matter as a medium through which to travel, they don't travel through a vacum. EM waves travel best through a vacum and lose energy as they move into more dense matter. All waves refract when they change velocity as they move from one medium into another, like air into water. Remember, there are some similarities amongst all types of waves, EM, mechanical, surface, and siesmic, but their behaviors are quite varied and complex.


What matter comes after plasma?

The next state of matter after plasma is called beam, where all the electrons, for some reason, all move the same direction.


What types of matter does sound travel through?

Sound travels through all matter but some materials either absorb sound, reflect sound, or just slow sound down.


What does the temperature scale on which zero is the temperature at which no more energy can be removed from matter mean?

The Kelvin scale with 0 at absolute zero means that you cannot get negative Kelvins. As you cool matter closer and closer to 0K the atoms in matter move less and less. they cannot move less than not at all.

no.

How does sound move through a liquid?

If I'm not mistaken all sounds move in waves.


Is sound matter or no matter?

Sound isn't matter, it's a wave propagating through matter. Remove all matter, as in vacuum, and you won't hear a thing.


What phase changes can matter on earth undergo?

When matter is acted upon by force or temperature, it can move between all the states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas.
