What can travel through space without a(n) medium?
Electromagnetic waves can travel through space without a medium.
Where can electromagntic waves travel through?
Electromagnetic Waves can travel through space without any material medium.
What waves traveli space that make there no sound?
In space, electromagnetic waves travel and carry energy without the need for a medium, such as air, to propagate. This is why sound cannot travel in the vacuum of space as it requires a medium to transmit the vibrations that we perceive as sound.
Does sound travel outside the earths atmosphere in space?
No. Sound is simply vibrations of particles that travel in a sort of "wave" motion. Since there is no medium (particles of matter) in space, it is not possible for there to be sound.Sound waves require a medium to travel through. They travel by knocking particles into other particles, causing a vibration to be transmitted.As outer-space is a vacuum, there is no matter present; this means that there is no medium for sound waves to travel through. Therefore, sound cannot travel in space.
What type of wave can transfer energy without medium?
the wave which does not travel through a medium is called electromagnetic wave.
What can electromagnetic waves do that mechanical waves ca not?
Travel through empty space without a physical medium.
Why does sound not travel through space?
Sound does move through space. It doesn't move though empty space, i.e. a vaccuum. In outer space there is a vaccuum (though not necessarily a perfect vaccuum).Sound is caused by vibrations in a medium such as air (or water or wood). These vibrations compress and rarefy the medium. The vibrations move through the medium as waves.In a vaccuum, there is no medium thus there is no sound.
What type of wave can't travel through empty space?
Mechanical waves, such as sound waves, require a medium (such as air, water, or a solid) to travel through and cannot travel through empty space. Electromagnetic waves, such as light waves, can travel through empty space because they do not require a medium.
Is mechanical waves can travel though empty space true or false?
False. Mechanical waves require a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. They cannot propagate through empty space because they rely on the vibration of particles in the medium to transfer energy.
What wave can travel though space where there is no matter?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio waves, can travel through the vacuum of space where there is no matter. These waves do not require a medium to propagate, unlike sound waves which require a medium such as air or water.
Why can't a sound wave travel from a satellite to earth?
A sound wave cannot travel through space because there is no air in space. Without a medium such as air, you can't hear sounds
How far can sound travel in space between astonauts?
Sound waves require a medium to travel through to propagate from point A to point B. In space there is no such medium, so sound does not travel in space.
