No not really.
Sound waves are mechanical waves. They require a medium for propagation.
On the other hand, Light waves are electromagnetic and do not require a medium.
Hence you cannot hear in space. AND light waves reach the earth from the sun through space- which is a vacuum!!
What else can I help you with?
What is whatever carries a wave called?
A medium is what carries a wave. It can be a substance such as water for water waves, air for sound waves, or even space for light waves. The medium is necessary for the wave to travel through.
A wave that requires a medium to travel?
A mechanical wave, such as a sound wave or a water wave, requires a medium to travel because it relies on the vibration or movement of particles in the medium to propagate energy. Without a medium, these waves cannot transfer their energy.
What does a wave travel in?
The medium
What medium does the wave travel in or how does it travel?
water
What do Sound wave not travel?
Sound wave do not travel through vaccum as it need medium to travel.
Which wave require a medium in which to travel?
No.
What is a wave that requires a medium wave?
A mechanical wave, such as a sound wave or water wave, requires a medium (substance) to travel through. In a mechanical wave, the energy is transferred through the medium by the vibration of particles.
What is the name of a wave that requires a medium in which to travel?
A mechanical wave.
Why doesnt a medium travel with the wave?
In wave motion, the medium does not physically travel with the wave because the medium particles only oscillate back and forth about their equilibrium positions. The energy of the wave is transferred through the medium by causing these particles to vibrate without displacing the medium itself.
The medium of a wave is?
The medium of a wave is the matter a wave travels through.So yeah, if you wiggle a rope, the medium isn't the air around the rope... the medium is the rope itself!
What factors are necessary for a sound wave to travel through a medium?
well sound actually always needs a medium so it can travel, in space there's is no sound because there isn't a medium it can travel through. but just about anything is a medium for sound. air is also a great medium, that's why were able to hear one another
What type of wave can transfer energy without medium?
the wave which does not travel through a medium is called electromagnetic wave.
