Does an electromagnetic wave use matter to transfer energy?
No, an electromagnetic wave does not require matter (a medium) to transfer energy. Electromagnetic energy (like light or radio waves) travels perfectly well in the vacuum of space. In contrast, a mechanical wave, of which sound is an example, does require a medium through which to travel.
A wave that travels through a medium?
We know that a mechanical wave requires a medium through which to travel. The source puts the energy into the medium, and it propagates. A sound wave is a good example of this, and we can contrast it with an electromagnetic wave (like light). Light can travel through a vacuum; it doesn't require a medium for its propagation.
What is the matter that waves use to transfer energy?
The matter that waves use to transfer energy is called the medium. The medium actually carries the energy of the wave. Sound is a good example of mechanical energy, and it requires a medium to travel. The energy created at the source is transferred into the medium, and the medium carries it forward in transmission (propagation).
What waves don't need medium to travel?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light, radio waves, and X-rays, do not require a medium to travel. These waves are able to propagate through a vacuum. In contrast, mechanical waves, like sound waves, do require a medium, as they rely on the vibration and movement of particles in a substance to transmit energy.
