Electromagnetic waves.
There are different names for electromagnetic radiation, depending on the frequency; radio, microwave, heat, light, UV, X-rays, gamma rays; all of these (and others) are different frequencies or "bands" of electromagnetic radiation.

∙ 12y agoNo! Maxwell believed that the electromagnetic energy needs a medium to travel through space, this he called the ether.
I believe Space is not 'empty', the 'ether" exists in the form of space impedance z= 375 Ohms. The space impedance is also related to Planck's Constant, h.
h = QW and z = W/Q where Q is the quantum Charge 4/3 E-18 Coulombs and W = 500 E-18 Webers (Volt second). Plancks's Constant is h=zQ2
Electromagnetic energy travels through "empty space" by energizing the medium of electromagnetic charges Q and W.
The electromagnetic energy is E = hf = hc/r = Q2zc/r!

and the sidewalk does not become hot in August.

In what ways can energy travel through empty space?
Electromagnetic waves, such as infrared and visible light
Which can travel through empty space out of insulator convection electomagnetic conduction or radiation?
Radiation can travel through empty space. The radiation in question is electromagnetic waves.
Would an electromagnetic pulse work in space?
Of course. It's generally known by virtually everyone that electromagnetic waves carry energy just fine through empty space.
What waves don't need matter to travel through?
Electromagnetic Waves do not require a medium, or matter to move through, to transfer waves. This includes radiowaves, microwaves, infared waves, visible light waves, Ultraviolet waves, X-rays, and gamma rays.
All electromagnetic radiation can travel thought empty space and travels at the same speed?
true
What kind of energy can travel in waves and can move through empty spaces?
Electromagnetic.
How does the sun' energy travel to the earth?
Electromagnetic radiation... i.e., light. Electromagnetic Waves A+
Which is a bundle of energy that can travel through empty space?
Electromagnetic waves or radiation
In what ways can energy travel through empty space?
Electromagnetic waves, such as infrared and visible light
What is an energy that can travel through waves and move through empty space?
Gravitational (-GmM/r) and Electromagnetic (hf=hc/r) Energy.
Wave that can travel through an empty space?
what is a form of energy that travels as waves through the air and some solids and liquids call?
Do electromagnetic waves carry energy or travel through empty space?
Those two descriptions are not mutually exclusive, and in fact, electromagnetic waves do both.
Name one kind of wave that does not require a medium?
An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.
Which type of wave can travel through empty space by electromagnetic waves?
Light, a combination of oscillating electric and magnetic fields.
Can electromagnetic energy travel through space?
Did you ever see sunlight, or light from the stars? - Light is a type of electromagnetic wave, and it came to us by traveling through empty space.
Which of the following is true of electromagnetic waves?
Electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space.
Can electromagnetic radiation travel through empty space?
Yes it can, and it does.
