Which requires a physical medium in which to travel light or sound?
it is sound that requires a medium to travel .. light is an electromagnetic wave ..it doesn't require a medium..
Is medium required to transmit light waves?
No. light waves required no medium for transmission.
What types of energy transfer requires a medium?
Its either sound, visible light,xrays.ultraviolet light
Why does there have to be a medium for waves to travel through?
There does not have to be a medium. Light does not require a medium. Mechanical waves require a mediumAnswer 2:Not all waves require a medium for their transmission. Mechanical waves require a medium for their transmission because it is the molecules of the medium which cause the wave to propagate. However, electromagnetic waves do NOT require a medium. (for example light)
What is electromagnetic radiation with medium wavelengths called?
Look at the list of electromagnetic radiations; there is a large variety of them, but you'll have to decide for yourself what you consider "medium wavelength".
What do Wi-Fi networks use?
Most of these networks use radio waves for their transmission medium, but some use infrared light waves
What wi-fi network uses?

Why light travel in vacuum but not sound?
Light requires nothing more than a source for transmission. sound requires a source and a medium to conduct it. In vacuum, there is no conductor for sound.
Which requires a physical medium in which to travel light or sound?
it is sound that requires a medium to travel .. light is an electromagnetic wave ..it doesn't require a medium..
Why can supernova explostions be seen but not heard?
because light is larger than soundansw2. Well - almost there. Light as an electromagnetic phenomenon requires no medium for its transmission. Sound (and vibration) are mechanical waves, and require a medium for their transmission, and there is no such medium between us and a super nova. And it will be a long way away, I hope.
Is medium required to transmit light waves?
No. light waves required no medium for transmission.
Is infrared transmission method reliable?
no,because it is effected by sun light.......
Can you break a infrared beam with another infrared beam or another light source?
In general, no. You may be able to exploit non-linear properties of the medium through which light is shining, but you cannot stop light using just other light.

Its either sound, visible light,xrays.ultraviolet light

What is traveling medium of radiation?
Electromagnetic Radiation requires no medium. Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, and it can traverse the stars.
Whats light transmission?
Light transmission is the ability of light to travel through a medium without being scattered or absorbed. When the light reaches a surface of material, this can absorb the entire portions of the light.
