Does light waves travel through a diamond air water or a vacuum fastest?
Air
Where do mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves travel fastest?
Mechanical waves travel fastest in mechanically-most-dense media. Electromagnetic waves travel fastest in optically-least-dense media.
Which type of wave travels the fastest?
Electromagnetic waves travel the fastest, at the speed of light in a vacuum, 3.0 x 108 m/s.
Do sound waves trave their fastest in solids?
Yes. Sound waves travel fastest through solids.
Sound waves travel fastest in what?
solids
What does Light waves travel the fastest through?
outer space
When is the only time that light waves travel at thespeedof light?
Light waves ALWAYS travel at the "Speed of Light"....based on the medium that the waves are traveling through. It just so happens that they go the FASTEST in a VACUUM.
Which waves travel the fastest?
The light wave, which is electromagnetic energy, is the fastest wave. The speed of light, which is a physics constant, is the speed of light in a vacuum, and no object with mass can be accelerated to this speed.
Does light waves travel through a diamond air water or a vacuum fastest?
Air
Which seismic waves travel the fastest?
Primary (P) waves are the fastest. Followed by secondary (S) waves, then surface waves. P waves
Where do mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves travel fastest?
Mechanical waves travel fastest in mechanically-most-dense media. Electromagnetic waves travel fastest in optically-least-dense media.
Does light waves travel fastest through empty space?
Light waves, like all electromagnetic waves, travel without a medium, so they can travel through empty space. Sound waves, on the other hand, do require a medium to travel or propagate; therefore, they can not travel through empty space.
Which light wave has the fastest speed?
All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed in vacuum.
Do primary waves travel fastest?
Yes they are the fastest!
States would sound waves usually travel the fastest?
Sound waves travel the fastest through nonporous solids.
Which type of wave travels the fastest?
Electromagnetic waves travel the fastest, at the speed of light in a vacuum, 3.0 x 108 m/s.
What do light waves travel best through?
Light waves travel fastest through vacuum, at nearly 30 million meters per second. Light travels more slowly through other substances such as air and water, and can be absorbed.
