What else can I help you with?
A type of energy that travels as a wave but does not require a medium through which to travel?
Light energy.
Why light posses dual nature?
light travel as a wave but it carries photon which is consider to be a particle.so photon done function as a particle and wave motion made effect as wave.
What motion does a circular wave travel in?
Circular Motion
How does the energy of a shear wave relates to the direction of particle motion?
Shear waves travel perpendicular to the direction of particle motion, which results in the particle motion being parallel to the wave's direction. The energy of a shear wave is mainly associated with the shearing or twisting motion of particles in the medium, as opposed to the compression and expansion seen in longitudinal waves.
Which type of wave does the medium travel in a circular motion?
Transverse waves have a medium that moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation. This motion can be seen in water waves or electromagnetic waves, such as light.
Do water particles travel with the wave?
In a wave, the energy is transferred through the water rather than the actual water particles moving along with the wave. The water particles move in a circular motion as the wave passes through them, but they do not travel in the direction of the wave.
How are sound and light forms of energy different?
Sound is a form of mechanical energy and light is electrical. Sound moves as a longitudinal wave and lighty as a transverse wave. Sound cannot travel in free space, light can.
What type of wave does light travel as?
A sonic wave.
Does a wave carry energy?
Yes, a wave carries energy through its oscillating motion. This energy can be in the form of mechanical energy (e.g., sound waves or seismic waves) or electromagnetic energy (e.g., light waves).
Why can a wave travel through a medium?
Wave is form of kinetic energy transfer through medium in propagation - oscillation manner. Water wave is the continue motion of water and sound wave is through air. The electron motion in A/C is the motion of free electron transfer through the next electron to the use point. Exception of wave that doesn't require medium is light wave, however, if it consider space as ether then the light wave also travel through the ether as medium.
What kind of wave does light travel as?
Light is an electromagnetic wave.
What moves forward in a water wave?
In a water wave, it is the energy that moves forward, causing the water molecules to oscillate in a circular motion. This energy is transmitted through the water but the water molecules themselves do not travel long distances.
