It may be called a "wave." Waves are a type of vibration that carry energy from molecule to molecule through matter. A "wave" can also be electromagnetic energy, which does not require matter to propagate.

A disturbance moving through a solid liquid or gaseous medium is called?

A disturbance moving through a medium is called a wave. Waves can take various forms, such as sound waves in air, water waves in the ocean, or seismic waves traveling through the Earth's crust.


What is a periodic disturbance in a solid liquid or gas as energy is transmitted through a medium?

A wave is a periodic disturbance in a solid, liquid, or gas as energy is transmitted through a medium. Waves can be classified as mechanical waves, which require a medium to travel through, or electromagnetic waves, which do not require a medium and can travel through a vacuum.


What is A periodic disturbance in a solid liquid or gas as energy is transmitted through the medium?

A wave is a periodic disturbance in a solid, liquid, or gas that transmits energy through the medium. Waves can carry energy without carrying matter and exhibit characteristics such as frequency, wavelength, and amplitude.


Compare freezing and deposition?

Freezing is the process of a liquid turning into a solid when cooled, while deposition is the direct transition of a gas to a solid state without passing through the liquid phase. Both involve a change in state from a fluid to a solid, but freezing occurs for liquids and deposition for gases.


What is the difference between the molecules in a hot solid and hot liquid?

The molecules in a solid vibrate in place. The molecules of a liquid are moving about.

Which technique uses a porous barrier to separate a solid from a liquid?

Filtration is a technique that uses a porous barrier, typically a filter paper or sieve, to separate a solid from a liquid. The liquid passes through the barrier while the solid particles are retained on the filter.


Does light travel faster through liquid or solid?

Light travels faster through liquid than through solid. The speed of light in a medium is determined by the refractive index of the material, which is lower in liquid compared to solid materials.


What is the disturbance that travels sound waves?

The disturbance that travels sound waves is the wave itself. A wave, which is the motion of energy, is defined as a disturbance that travels through a medium whether it's air, liquid or a solid.


Can a gas be Converted into liquid or solid state?

Yes through condensation it becomes a liquid, and through deposition it becomes a solid.


Light travel faster through solid or liquid?

liquid


What are liquid drops or solid particles spread through gas?

A gas cannot easily pass through a liquid or a solid however it can be entrapped in it . If a gas bubble is formed in a liquid it moves upward and escapes out of the liquid. Gas cannot pass through a solid barrier.
