Which of the following waves does not require a medium through which to travel?
Any eletromagnetic wave. Light, visible or non visible.
Do visible light and x-rays travel through different medians?
Visible light and x-rays are both forms of electromagnetic radiation, and do not require a medium to travel through.
True or false visible light waves require a medium in which to travel?
False, you can see the visible light from stars that travels through the vacuum of space
Do light waves require a medium in which to travel?
No.
How do electromagnetic waves travel through a medium?
electromagnetic waves generally don't require a medium to travel. the most commonly visible example is "light" which may be either sun's light, light from a bulb or any other source. they travel as transverse waves.
Which requires a physical medium in which to travel light or sound?
it is sound that requires a medium to travel .. light is an electromagnetic wave ..it doesn't require a medium..
The one type of wave that does not require a medium?
An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.
Can wave travel a vacuum in sopce?
Yes, but only electromagnetic waves, such as visible light or radio waves. Mechanical waves like sound require a medium to travel.
Does x ray travel faster than visible light in medium?
No.
Does light require a medium to travel through?
No - unless you call empty space the "medium".
Why does there have to be a medium for waves to travel through?
There does not have to be a medium. Light does not require a medium. Mechanical waves require a mediumAnswer 2:Not all waves require a medium for their transmission. Mechanical waves require a medium for their transmission because it is the molecules of the medium which cause the wave to propagate. However, electromagnetic waves do NOT require a medium. (for example light)
Is vacuum a medium?
Vacuum is not a medium. Considering waves, mechanical waves require a medium (such as air) to travel. Electromagnetic waves (such as visible light and radio waves) do not require a medium, and are the only waves (that we know of) that can travel through a vacuum. I have heard of a gravity wave, which may be a third type of wave. I don't know much about them. These would also travel through a vacuum.
