What waves transfer from one place to another?

All waves can travel from one place to another as long as they have a medium to travel through. The only waves that do not need a medium are electromagnetic waves. When using the word "transfer" though. Waves transfer energy; waves themselves are not transfered they simply travel.

No.


What can electromagnetic waves transfer waves without?

Electromagnetic waves can carry energy from place to place without a medium. Further, any frequency of radiation from a mass transfers energy in the form of waves. As to whether it is with or without a medium is yet unknown and yet to be experimentally proved or disproved.

What do Light waves carry from place to place?

Light waves are fluctuations in the electromagnetic field. They carry energy.In another model light is composed of photons, energy packets, where the energy is proportional to the color (in the wave model this is the wavelength).


What types of waves do not need a medium?

Electromagnetic waves don't need anything to travel through, and they can travelthrough the vacuum of space. Electromagnetic waves consist of electrostatic andmagnetic fields, which can exist and move from place to place without the presenceof any material to carry them.
