What are disturbances that carry energy through matter?
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.
What media can mechanical waves travel through?
solids, liquids, gasses
Does waves travel through solids or liquids faster?
Sound waves travel faster through denser media, like solids, because the molecules are closer together, making it easier to pass the sound from molecule to molecule. Light and other electromagnetic waves travel faster through less dense media, and they travel fastest through a vacuum.
What do Mechanical wave's require?
Mechanical waves require media through which they can travel.
Where do mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves travel fastest?
Mechanical waves travel fastest in mechanically-most-dense media. Electromagnetic waves travel fastest in optically-least-dense media.

Mechanical waves require what?
Mechanical waves require media through which they can travel.
How sound waves travel through media?
titi mu
How do sound waves travel further through media such as water and steel?
dense media
What media can mechanical waves travel through?
solids, liquids, gasses
What are the mediums that waves can travel through?
Waves can travel through many media, depending on their nature. Sound waves can go through solids, liquids and gases. Transverse shock waves can only travel through solids. Electromagnetic waves can go through some solids, liquids or gases, or through a vacuum.
Does waves travel through solids or liquids faster?
Sound waves travel faster through denser media, like solids, because the molecules are closer together, making it easier to pass the sound from molecule to molecule. Light and other electromagnetic waves travel faster through less dense media, and they travel fastest through a vacuum.
What do Mechanical wave's require?
Mechanical waves require media through which they can travel.
What waves does mechanical travel through?
A mechanical wave can travel through a medium with mass and elasticity. Examples are air and water (sound waves), earth (earthquakes).
How the sound waves travel through media than air?
In the same longitudinal form
What different media do earthquakes waves travel through?
hey travel through p waves and other ones too
One difference between reflection and refaction of light waves is the?
In reflection, the light waves travel within the same media and maintains the same speed but in refraction light waves travel through a different media and so their speed changes.
