Electromagnetic waves are the only form of energy that does not need a medium for propagation.
No, sound waves require a medium like air, water, or solids to travel through. In a vacuum where there is no medium, sound waves cannot propagate.
No, compressional waves require a medium to travel through, so they cannot travel through a vacuum where there is no matter. Sound waves, which are compressional waves, cannot propagate through a vacuum.
Sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum because they require a medium, such as air, water, or solids, to propagate. Vacuum is devoid of any particles for sound waves to travel through.
Sound waves cannot propagate in a vacuum. Sound waves travel through matter, and a vacuum is, by definition, the absence of matter.
Waves can travel through many media, depending on their nature. Sound waves can go through solids, liquids and gases. Transverse shock waves can only travel through solids. Electromagnetic waves can go through some solids, liquids or gases, or through a vacuum.
Electromagnetic waves, such as light waves and radio waves, can pass through a vacuum because they do not require a medium to propagate. Sound waves, on the other hand, require a material medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through and cannot propagate through a vacuum.
Electromagnetic waves, such as light waves and radio waves, can be transmitted in a vacuum because they do not require a medium to travel through. These waves propagate through the vacuum of space and can travel long distances without the need for a medium.
Vacuum
Vacuum waves are generated when there is a disturbance in a vacuum, such as an explosion or a sudden change in pressure. These waves propagate through the vacuum at the speed of light and can carry energy and momentum. Vacuum waves do not require a medium to travel through, unlike sound waves which need a medium like air or water.
Electromagnetic waves, such as visible light, radio waves, and X-rays, can pass through a vacuum because they do not require a medium for propagation. However, mechanical waves, like sound waves, cannot propagate in a vacuum because they need a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through.
Mechanical waves, such as sound waves, require a medium (such as air, water, or solid material) to travel and cannot propagate through a vacuum. Electromagnetic waves, on the other hand, do not require a medium and can travel through a vacuum.
The transfer of energy through a vacuum can only be accomplished by electromagnetic waves, such as light or radio waves. These waves can travel through vacuum because they do not require a medium to propagate.
