What else can I help you with?
What kind of waves can travel only through a medium?
Longitudinal
How did Boyle's experiment show that sound cannot travel through a medium?
I cannot imagine what experiment you are referring to because sound ONLY travels through a medium. In space, no sound.
What kind of wave does a sound travel through?
Sound travels through longitudinal waves, which means that the particles of the medium (such as air, water, or solids) vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave's propagation. This compression and rarefaction of the medium creates the sensation of sound when it reaches our ears.
What do waves not transfer?
There are lots of things they don't transfer.
What is the method by which a wave travels through a medium or a vacuum.?
Most forms of energy do NOT require a medium for transmission. There are several types of energy: 1. Magnetic 2. Gravitational 3. Electromagnetic 4. Nuclear Sound is the only one that requires a medium for transmission. 5. Sound Sound travels by vibrating the Particles in the matter that it is traveling through.
The matter through which a wave travels is called?
Oh, dude, it's like totally called a "medium." Not like the psychic kind, but like the substance that waves move through, you know? So, like, whether it's air for sound waves or water for ocean waves, that's the medium, man. So, yeah, that's the totally legit term for it.
Is vacuum the only medium for light to travel?
No. Light also travels through air, water and glass, to give just a few examples.
Does sound only travel at one speed?
No, it depends on the medium in which it travels.
What wave travels through only matter?
Sound waves. No medium (matter) to carry it, no sound.
What is the only kind of wave that does not need a solid liquid or gas medium to pass through?
The only kind of wave that does not require a medium to pass through is an electromagnetic wave. These waves can travel through empty space and do not need a material medium for propagation. Examples of electromagnetic waves include light waves, radio waves, and X-rays.
How do you stop sound from colliding with air?
Sound is only produced through vibrations. So if there was no air, there would be no sound. In other words, sound needs a medium to travel through, because it needs something to vibrate. The denser the medium, the faster and farther it travels.
What is the proof that light travels in straight light?
Light actually travels in waves.This is known to be true because there are only 3 ways that energy can be transferred. As you probably already know, light does not need a medium to travel through because it travels through space. Electromagnetic waves are the only form of energy transfer that do not require a medium to travel through.
