What kind of waves originate at the focus and can travel through all types of matter?
p waves
What kind of wave does sound travel through?
Sound travels through matter as transverse pressure waves.
What kind of wave can travel only through matter?
A mechanical wave, such as a sound wave, can only travel through matter because it requires a medium to propagate. Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through both matter and empty space.
What is the difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves with regard to travel?
Mechanical waves need some kind of material to transmit through. They involve the shaking and passing of energy through matter. Electromagnetic waves don't need a medium to travel through. Outer space is considered a vaccuum, there is no matter to shake back and forth to create a wave. This is why electromagnetic waves can travel through solids, liquids, and why they travel faster.
What kind of waves travel through earth?
sound waves?
What kind of wave is able to travel through both matter and empty space?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through both matter and empty space. This is because electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to propagate, unlike mechanical waves such as sound waves which rely on a medium such as air or water.
What kind of waves travel through all layers?
Primary waves.
What do sounds travel through?
Any kind of matter that is not too tenuous. In other words, it won't travel through a vacuum.Any kind of matter that is not too tenuous.

What kind of waves can't travel through the core of the Earth?
S-waves.
What kind waves can travel through space?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio waves, can travel through space because they do not require a medium to propagate. These waves can travel through the vacuum of space and do not need a material substance to carry them.
What do electromagnetic waves need to travel?
Electromagnetic waves don't need anything to travel. This kind of waves does not need a medium to move through, therefore they can even travel through outer space.
What kind of waves can travel only through a medium?
Longitudinal
