Electromagnetic waves travel through a vacuum at the speed of light, c, which is 3.00 x 108 m/s to three significant figures. A few examples include visible light rays, x-rays, and gamma rays.

Electromagnetic waves can travel through a?
Vacuum
Which waves travel through vacuum?
raDIO WaVES
Can mechanical waves travel through any type of medium?
Yes, except vacuum. Only Electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum.
What are mediums that waves can travel through?
This depends a lot on the type of waves you're talking about. Sound waves, for example, can travel through water, solid, and air mediums, but not through a vacuum. Electromagnetic waves, however, can travel in a vacuum.
Is it true that unlike mechanical waves electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum such as you would find in space?
Correct, electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum. Sunlight is an example of this.

What Waves that can travel through a vacuum?
Electromagnetic waves.
Where do sound waves travel through?
Sound waves travel through matter, whether solid, liquid, or gas. They do not travel through vacuum.
What do shear waves travel through?
Shear waves travel through solids. They cannot travel through liquids and gasses (unlike compressive waves) and they can't travel through a vacuum (unlike electromagnetic waves).
What medium can electromagnetic waves travel through that sound waves can not?
the answer is vacuum.
What are the electromagnetic waves that can travel through the vacuum of space?
Tranverse waves.
