What state of matter travels through waves?
It depends. Is it a mechanical wave or a electromagnetic wave? Mechanical waves (for example sound waves) travel trough every state of matter and they can't exist without matter. They don't travel through vacuum. Electromagnetic waves travel trough space and get interrupted only by other electromagnetic waves.
What can sound waves not travel trough?
A perfect vacuum
What type of mediums do sound waves travel trough?
Sound waves can travel through mediums such as air, water, and solid materials like metal or wood. The speed and behavior of sound waves can vary depending on the properties of the medium they are traveling through.
Why can't sound travel trough dark matter as we say it is present everywhere?
Sound requires particles to travel through, but dark matter is believed to be non-interacting, meaning it doesn't interact with the particles that carry sound waves. This lack of interaction prevents sound waves from propagating through dark matter.
Explain why cant sound travel through vacuums?
there is no air in a vaccum. and sound needs air for the sound waves to travel through.
What travels only through matter light waves sound waves or radio waves?
Sound waves can only travel through matter, as they require a medium to propagate. Light waves and radio waves can travel through both matter and empty space.
When a tree falls can sound waves travel?
Sound waves travel through matter. Our atmosphere is a mixture of gases which is a form of matter. Sound waves will travel through our atmosphere, even if there is no human ear to receive it.
Do all waves travel through matter?
NO some waves like sound require matter to travel whereas light waves can travel in vacuum.
What are waves that travel through matter called?
The type of waves that travel through matter are Electromagnetic waves.
What are a sound wave?
Yes, sound waves are pressure waves that travel through matter.
What states of matter can a medium be?
A medium can exist in three states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. Solids have a fixed shape and volume, liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container, and gases have neither a fixed shape nor volume.
A wave that travels trough empty space or matter?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through empty space as they do not require a medium to propagate. They consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that carry energy from one place to another. Sound waves, on the other hand, require a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through.
