Light is not a wave because it does not need a medium?
That statement assumes that every wave needs a medium, which is a false assumption. An electromagnetic wave, such as light, does not need a medium.
A wave that requires a medium to travel?
A mechanical wave such as a sound wave requires a medium to travel through.
In this type of wave wave particles of the medium?
No, particles of the medium do not become part of the wave
What will change the velocity of a periodic wave?
Changing the medium of the wave
Does a transverse wave move a medium?
In this type of wave, the medium moves perpendicularly to the direction of the wave.
Light is not a wave because it does not need a medium?
That statement assumes that every wave needs a medium, which is a false assumption. An electromagnetic wave, such as light, does not need a medium.
If the wave requires a medium then the wave is classified as a?
If the wave requires a medium then it is a mechanical wave.
A wave that requires a medium to travel?
A mechanical wave such as a sound wave requires a medium to travel through.
The Speed of a wave in a medium?
It depends on what type of wave and in which medium.
In this type of wave wave particles of the medium?
No, particles of the medium do not become part of the wave
Does a transverse wave move a medium?
In this type of wave, the medium moves perpendicularly to the direction of the wave.
What will change the velocity of a periodic wave?
Changing the medium of the wave
The disappearance of a wave into a medium?
The disappearance of a wave into a medium is called absorption.
The medium of a wave is?
The medium of a wave is the matter a wave travels through.So yeah, if you wiggle a rope, the medium isn't the air around the rope... the medium is the rope itself!
What type of wave requires a material medium through which to travel?
We know that mechanical waves require a medium through which to travel. An example of a mechanical wave is a sound (acoustic) wave. The wave transfers its energy into the medium so that it can propagate through it. In contrast, electromagnetic waves don't require a medium through which to travel. They move perfectly well through the vacuum of space.
Medium for the wave?
The medium of any wave is the material that the wave energy travels through; in this case water.
Why does a mechanical wave need a medium?
medium is the matter a wave trvels through
