What types of waves are light waves?
it is a transverse wave (:
What are examples of a wave?
There are two types of waves: 1. Longitudinal wave e.g. Sound waves 2. Transverse wave e.g. light waves
What are 2 types of waves?
1. Sound waves 2. Light wave
Does a sound wave or a light wave travel faster through a solid?
A sound wave. This is because the sound wave is transverse meaning it needs a medium to travel through. Most solids will block visible light but not other types of light. The solid works best for the transverse because the atoms are close together making it easy to transfer the wave through the material.
What type of wave does light travel as?
A sonic wave.
Light waves are a type of transverse wave that can travel through space or a vacuum. This means that unlike other types of waves light waves?
what is it
How is refracted?
The refraction of light means that although light travels in straight lines, when it moves from one substance into another, it can change direction. This happens because the wave changes speed as it travels between different types of materials.As a light wave travelsbetween diffrent clear substances, the light wave bends. When light passes one substance to another, the light changes direction.
What kind of wave does light have?
I would rather say that light IS a wave, not that it HAS a wave. It is a type of electromagnetic wave.
Light travels as a longitudal wave?
No, light is a transverse wave.No, light is a transverse wave.No, light is a transverse wave.No, light is a transverse wave.
What type of wave is a light wave an example of?
Light is an example of a electromagnetic wave.
What is the wave model of light?
its a light behaviour that represents light travelling as a wave
Define wave and its types?
a wave is a phenomenon that transfers energy, not matter. there are 2 types of waves: transverse e.g. light and longitudinal e.g. sound, seismic im not that good at physics, but that's the best i can come up with, sorry ^^;;
