All waves require a medium.
Waves that require a medium through which to travel are called mechanical waves. They require a medium (gas, solid, and liquid).
generally electromagnetic wave does not require any medium while sound waves require a medium (air) for propagation
Mechanical waves require a medium (substance) to travel in, other waves do not. For example, sound is a mechanical wave and require a medium (air, water, etc.), light is not a mechanical wave and does not require a medium
No.
Yes, earth is the medium
Waves that require a medium are called mechanical waves
Mechanical waves
An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.
A Sound wave, water wave, earth quake wave. Electromagnetic waves (radio, light, etc.) do not require a medium for propagation.
Mechanical waves require a medium for their travel.
A standing wave requires a relative motion of the medium at the same velocity of the wave
There does not have to be a medium. Light does not require a medium. Mechanical waves require a mediumAnswer 2:Not all waves require a medium for their transmission. Mechanical waves require a medium for their transmission because it is the molecules of the medium which cause the wave to propagate. However, electromagnetic waves do NOT require a medium. (for example light)
