If you're able to listen to your portable radio inside the house, then it must be.
An even better answer: You can talk on your cellphone while you're in an elevator.
And please, don't forget about all that sunshine pouring in through the window-glass.
Yes, electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum as they do not require a medium to propagate. However, when electromagnetic waves encounter matter, they may be absorbed, reflected, or transmitted depending on the properties of the material.
Electromagnetic waves can travel through space.Mechanical waves need matter to transfer energy.
Electromagnetic waves such as light can pass through material medium such as water, glass etc and at the same time it could pass through vacuum ie a medium of free space.
The type of waves that travel through matter are Electromagnetic waves.
Light waves and electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space. Water waves can only travel through matter. Hope this helped!
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.
A wave is a disturbance that moves through matter or space by transferring energy without transferring matter. Waves can be classified as mechanical waves, such as sound waves and water waves, or electromagnetic waves, like light and radio waves.
In electromagnetic waves terms, a vacuum refers to a region of space that contains no matter and has no medium for the waves to propagate through. Electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum because they do not require a medium for transmission.
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.
Electromagnetic waves are very much different from the matter waves and in many ways. a) Speed of matter waves is very much less than the speed of electromagnetic waves. b) Matter waves cannot be radiated in empty space unlike electromagnetic waves. c) Matter waves are just associated with the particle, not emitted by it Matter waves have smaller wave lengths than electromagnetic waves
Electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio waves, can travel through a vacuum because they do not require a medium to propagate. This is possible due to the nature of electromagnetic radiation as oscillating electric and magnetic fields that can exist independently of a medium.
These disturbances are known as "waves". Examples include compression waves in air or other media (i.e., sound), and electromagnetic waves, which can travel both through matter and through empty space.
