What else can I help you with?
Waves. Ocean light and other earthquake waves are waves.?
Waves are defined as disturbances that carry energy from one place to another without the transfer of matter. Ocean waves are caused by the wind transferring energy to the water surface, while earthquake waves are caused by the release of energy from the Earth's crust. Light waves are electromagnetic waves that travel through space at the speed of light.
What type of energy is visible and caused by vibrations?
visable energy is light such as sunlight, but now sure what energy is both visable and caused by vibrations
Water waves are caused by wind which is directly caused by the?
The movement of air molecules. As air flows over the surface of the water, it transfers energy that causes ripples and waves to form.
What is an explanation of how energy travels in waves to produce light and sound?
Light travels in waves, and sound travels in waves. However, sound waves and light waves are very different, and it is important not to confuse the two. Light travels in electromagnetic waves, and sound does not. Sound waves are caused by vibration.
Which sense responds to the energy caused by movement of air molecules?
The sense of hearing responds to the energy caused by movement of air molecules. Sound waves are created when air molecules vibrate and these waves are detected by the ear, allowing us to perceive sound.
What is rhythmic movement that carries energy through matter or space?
A wave is a rhythmic movement that carries energy through matter or space. Waves can be found in various forms, such as sound waves, light waves, and ocean waves, and they transfer energy without transferring matter.
What waves are caused by the back and forth movement or vibration of and object.?
Mechanical waves such as sound waves are caused by the back and forth movement or vibration of an object. These waves require a medium, such as air, water, or solids, to propagate. The compression and rarefaction of the medium create the wave motion that carries energy.
What is caused by the rotation and movement of energy of the sun and reach far out into space?
As far as I know, the only type of energy caused by the movement of masses - more accurately, the acceleration of masses - is gravitational waves. However, the roation of an object with spherical symmetry won't emit gravitational waves.
What are the transfers of energy by waves called?
The transfers of energy by waves are called wave propagation. Waves carry energy through the movement of particles or fields without the actual transfer of matter. This energy transfer can occur through mechanical waves (such as sound waves) or electromagnetic waves (such as light waves).
Is a seismic wave caused by energy released as the result of rock movement along a fault?
Yes, a seismic wave is caused by the energy released when rocks along a fault move and break. This movement generates waves that travel through the Earth, causing vibrations that we feel as an earthquake.
Can waves carry energy and matter?
Waves can carry energy but not matter. In the case of mechanical waves, such as water waves or sound waves, the energy is transferred through the movement of the medium's particles. In contrast, electromagnetic waves, like light waves, can travel through a vacuum and transfer energy without the need for a medium.
Are light waves caused by a vibrating object?
Light waves are not caused by vibrating objects. Light waves are electromagnetic waves that do not require a medium to propagate, unlike sound waves which are caused by vibrating objects. The vibrations of charged particles, such as electrons, generate light waves.
