The matter through which waves transfers energy?
The matter through which waves transfers energy is a medium.
Can a mechanical wave transfer matter?
No waves do not transfer matter but it transfers only the energy
What kind of wave transfers energy but no matter?
water waves ? Electromagnetic waves are an obvious example. Generally, it is a characteristic of waves that matter is not transferred.
What do not need matter to transfer energy?
Energy can travel through empty space as electromagnetic waves (light, etc.), or as gravitational waves. Changes in the electric and magnetic field are also energy transfers without matter. However, please note that any energy has, by itself, an associated mass.
Do waves transfers energy?
Yes, waves can and do transfer energy. When the particles vibrate, this means energy is then being transferred. However, they do not transfer matter.
The matter through which waves transfers energy?

What sort of energy transfers by electromagnetic waves?
Light
What is the transfer of of energy carried by light waves to particles in matter?
This process is called energy absorption.
What do light waves transfer?
Light is a wave, so there are no waves transferring light.
Can a mechanical wave transfer matter?
No waves do not transfer matter but it transfers only the energy

What do waves carry from place to place?
No, they do not. A wave transfers energy but the matter does not move forward with the wave.

Is light an object of matter?
No, light is energy in electromagnetic waves, it is not matter.
Radiation transfers energy by moving matter.?
No. Radiation transfers energy by the propagation of waves within the electromagnetic spectrum and the travel of photons (wave-particle duality). No matter is moved in this process.
Do waves transfers energy?
Yes, waves can and do transfer energy. When the particles vibrate, this means energy is then being transferred. However, they do not transfer matter.
