If the information for television goes through the air, the waves used are electromagnetic waves; specifically of the type called RADIO WAVES.All electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light when in a vacuum: about 300,000 km/second. In air, the speed is almost the same as in a vacuum.

When sound waves travel from air to water what will happen to the speed at wich they are moving?
i think the speed will increase.
Is this true Light waves do not change speed as they travel from air through water?
no. they slow down.
How fast are ultrasonic sound waves?
Ultrasonic sound waves travel at the same speed as lower frequency sound waves. The medium determines the speed at which a sound wave, which is mechanical energy, can travel. Sound waves travel faster in liquids than in a gas (like air), and travel faster still in solids. The speed at which a sound wave travels is generally independent of the frequency of that sound. Use the link below for more information.
What speed do these waves travel through a vacuum?
depends on what wave where you are however if you are on about space it wont travel because of low presser meaning no air force. but on earth sond waves can reach 100000 km
Does sound wave travel through light wave?
Sound Waves and Light Waves are different. The following are the differences I am aware of:Velocity: Light Waves travel through air and empty space at a speed of approximately 186,000 miles per second or 300,000 kilometers per second. Sound waves travel through air at the speed of approximately 1,100 feet per second or 330 meters per second.Wave Type: Sound Waves are longitudinal in nature whereas Light waves are transverse in nature.Light Waves can travel through vacuum whereas Sound cannot.Hope this helps.
What is the speed of ultrasonic waves in vacuum is equal to what is the speed of audible sound in air?
No, ultrasonic wave do not travel at all in a vacuum.
What speed do sound waves travel at?
760 miles per hour (in air).
What speed do sound waves travel?
760 miles per hour (in air).
When sound waves travel from air to water what will happen to the speed at wich they are moving?
i think the speed will increase.
What happens to seismic waves in the air?
In air, the seismic waves(P-wave) are simply sound waves, and travel with the speed of sound (approx. 335 m/s).
Is this true Light waves do not change speed as they travel from air through water?
no. they slow down.
What speed do radio waves travel in air?
Radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultra violet, XRays, and gamma rays are all part of the "electromagnetic spectrum". They are all electromagnetic radiation and they all travel at the speed of light (186,000 miles per second). The only difference between them is their frequencies (or wavelengths)

All forms of energy in the elctromatic spectrum travel at the same speed of?
The speed of light. The speed is the same, if the EM waves travel through empty space. In other media, like air or water, they are usually slower.
Electromagnetic waves travel faster over land or water?
as long as they are both traveling through the air, then the speed is the same.
