What else can I help you with?
Can light travel through outerspace?
Yes, light can travel through outer space because it does not require a medium to propagate. In the vacuum of space, light can travel almost undisturbed for long distances until it interacts with matter.
How far will gamma travel?
Gamma Rays will travel as long as they have energy
Which gases does sound travel through?
Sound can travel as long as there is something for it to travel through. This could be a gas (such as air), a liquid (such as water) or a solid (such as a metal). In outer space there is no air for the sound to travel though, so astronauts can not talk with each other unless they use a radio. Radio waves and light waves can travel through space, that is why we are able to receive light from the sun. Source: www.examville.com
Theorectically how long would it take sound to travel 1 parsect if it could travel through space?
The question is irrelevant, since sounds cannot be transmitted through space.
What type of waves can be transmitted in a vacuum?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light waves and radio waves, can be transmitted in a vacuum because they do not require a medium to travel through. These waves propagate through the vacuum of space and can travel long distances without the need for a medium.
How do you know that it takes light so long to travel to us from space?
Because I'm a genius.
How long does it take to travel through space?
With present technology it only takes a few minute to reach 'space'. To travel elsewhere would depend on your destination.
What type of electromagnetic signals are currently used to communicate through space?
Radio waves are the most commonly used electromagnetic signals for communication through space. These waves have long wavelengths that can travel long distances without getting absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere. Additionally, microwaves and infrared signals are also used for specific space communication purposes.
Why do radio waves change to another wave to reach a satellite in space?
Radiation can move through space because it is made up of light. Unlike sound, it doesn't need a medium (something it can go through) and it can travel through the vacuum. Only light can do this, and radiation can also move through air, obviously.
What can waves not transport?
Waves cannot transport matter over long distances. They can only transmit energy through a medium or vacuum. For example, light waves can travel through space, but they cannot carry physical objects.
How long would it take to travel to the closest star using a space shuttle?
8.31 minutes @ the speed of light.
How long would it take us to travel a light in space?
this question makes no sense. Do u mean a 'lighyear'?
