Through what materials do infrared waves pass?
glass,water,air,photographic films,
Does a translucent material scatter light waves as the pass through it?
Translucent (sort of milky) materials scatter light in a random fashion as the light passes through them. There can be some scattering even in transparent materials (few materials are totally transparent!)
What kind of waves can pass through a vacuum?
Electromagnetic waves
What waves can pass through a vacuum?
Electromagnetic weaves can pass through a vacuum.
Can mechanical waves pass though a vacuum?
Mechanical waves can't pass through a vacuum. Mechanical waves need something to pass through. Space is generally considered a vacuum, with nothing in it to transmit a mechanical wave.
What materials will sound travel through?
Sound waves will travel through gases, liquids, and solids. Sound waves cannot pass through a vacuum.
Through what materials do infrared waves pass?
glass,water,air,photographic films,
Does an opaque material scatter light waves as they pass through it?
Light waves do not pass through opaque materials. Light is absorbed or reflected by opaque things. To be sure there is some scattering, nothing is entirely absorbent.
Shear waves will not pass through the?
Shear waves will not pass through the molten outer core of the Earth.
Do secondary waves travel through solids but not through liquids?
Secondary waves are transverse or shear waves which are able to pass through solids, but are not able to pass through liquids.
What types of hazardous materials rapidly pass through your skin and enter your bodies?
Organic solvents and amines.
What is s waves and p waves?
P-waves are faster than s-waves. Both can pass through solid rock, but only p-waves can pass through gases and liquids === ===
Does a translucent material scatter light waves as the pass through it?
Translucent (sort of milky) materials scatter light in a random fashion as the light passes through them. There can be some scattering even in transparent materials (few materials are totally transparent!)
Can light waves always travel in staight lines?
You mean "can light waves travel in nonstraight lines?"? Yes, if they are diffracted or pass through different materials. Gravity can also affect light waves and curve them.
Why are x rays powerful?
X-rays are a radiation which is above communications radio waves and below gamma rays. It is a highly energetic radio wave which is why it is able to pass through some materials. It is not energetic enough to pass through highly dense materials such as lead.
What waves can pass through a vacuum?
Electromagnetic weaves can pass through a vacuum.
What kind of waves can pass through a vacuum?
Electromagnetic waves
