- When waves act together, you talk about "interference".
- When they reinforce each other, it is "constructive interference".
- When they cancel each other, it is "destructive interference".

What kind of waves does light energy travel?
Those are called electromagnetic waves.
Did waves carries energy?
most kinds of waves need something to travel through. Water waves, for example, travel along the surface of the water. A wave can even travel along a rope. Gases (such as air), liquids (such as water), and solids (such as rope) , all act as mediums. Waves that require a medium through which travel are called mechanical waves.Some waves do not require a medium to travel through. Light can travel and carry energy through empty space. Waves that can travel without a medium are called electromagnetic waves. :)
What are waves that travel through space at the speed of light called?
All electromagnetic waves travel through space at the "speed of light". Light is one form of electromagnetic waves.
Why waves in a rope are called transverse wave?
ts of the rope vibrate movements to the direction in which the waves travel
Why do sound waves travel in waves?
Because they are waves, and waves travel that way.
What waves are that travel outward from the epicenter are called?
P waves
What are earthquake generated waves called?
Earthquake generated waves are called seismic waves. These are waves of energy that travel through the Earth's layers. Their velocity depends on the elasticity and density of the medium that they travel through.
Waves that travel at the surface such as Raleigh and long waves?
surface waves, raleigh waves, and long waves.
What are waves that travel through matter called?
The type of waves that travel through matter are Electromagnetic waves.
What kind of waves does light energy travel?
Those are called electromagnetic waves.

Electromagnetic waves that can travel though the vacuum of space is called what?
That would be electromagnetic waves.
Waves made by vibrating charges that can travEl without a medium are called?
Electromagnetic waves.
What are the waves of force called that travel through Earth as a result of an earthquake?
Seismic Waves.
What are waves that travel through space at the speed of light called?
All electromagnetic waves travel through space at the "speed of light". Light is one form of electromagnetic waves.
The vibrations that travel out from the center of an earthquake are called?
seismic waves
What are waves that travel across water called?
ocean tides
