Which wave require a medium in which to travel?
No.
What is a property of a wave?
Mechanical waves require a medium for their travel.
In order for a sound wave to travel it must have?
In order for a sound wave to travel, it must have a medium to propagate through. Sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum because they require a medium such as air, water, or solids to carry the vibrations. The medium allows the sound wave to transfer its energy from one point to another by compressing and rarefying the particles in the medium.
A body wave that cannot travel through liquids is?
A body wave that cannot travel through liquids is the S wave, also known as a shear wave. S waves are unable to propagate through liquids because they require a solid medium in order to transmit energy. P waves, on the other hand, can travel through both solids and liquids.
What wave require a medium to travel through?
electromagnetic. for example, light.
What is a wave that requires a medium wave?
A mechanical wave, such as a sound wave or water wave, requires a medium (substance) to travel through. In a mechanical wave, the energy is transferred through the medium by the vibration of particles.
Name one kind of wave that does not require a medium?
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.
Are radio waves a type of mechanical wave or a type of electromagnetic wave?
Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic wave. They do not require a medium to travel through and can travel through a vacuum, unlike mechanical waves which require a medium, such as air or water, to propagate.
Why are sound waves not considered a mechanical wave?
Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium in which to travel, i.e., a solid or fluid. As sound needs a medium to travel, sound is a mechanical wave.
Which wave requires medium?
Mechanical waves, such as sound waves and water waves, require a medium (substance) to travel through. Electromagnetic waves, like light waves, do not require a medium and can travel through a vacuum.
Is radio wave is a mechanical wave?
No, radio waves are not mechanical waves. They are a type of electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium (such as air or water) for propagation. Mechanical waves, on the other hand, require a medium to travel through.
A type of energy that travels as a wave but does not require a medium through which to travel?
Light energy.
