What else can I help you with?
Why cant sound waves travel through a vaccuum?
No medium to carry the sound energy.
Sound waves cannot travel on the?
Sound waves cannot travel through vaccum.
Can compressional waves travel through a vacuum?
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 cannot travel through what?
Sound cannot travel through a vacuum because it requires a medium, such as air or water, to propagate. In the absence of a medium, there are no particles for the sound waves to travel through, so they cannot be transmitted.
What type of waves travel through space?
Sound waves cannot travel through space.
Exept where can secondary waves travel?
secondary waves cannot travel through liquids
Which wave cannot travel through air or water?
THROUGH air or water transverse waves cannot travel. But on the surface of water transverse waves can be produced
What can s waves not travel through?
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D
Which mediums did the waves in exploration travel through a vaacum?
Waves cannot travel through vacuum as they require a medium like air, water, or solids to propagate. In a vacuum, there is no medium for waves to interact with, so they cannot travel.
What is the difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves with regard to travel?
Mechanical waves need some kind of material to transmit through. They involve the shaking and passing of energy through matter. Electromagnetic waves don't need a medium to travel through. Outer space is considered a vaccuum, there is no matter to shake back and forth to create a wave. This is why electromagnetic waves can travel through solids, liquids, and why they travel faster.
What type of seismic waves cannot travel through water?
S-waves, or secondary waves, cannot travel through water because they oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Water lacks the necessary material properties (shear strength) to transmit these waves.
Seismic waves that cannot travel through liquids?
Shear waves, also known as S-waves, are seismic waves that cannot travel through liquids. This is because S-waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of travel, and liquids do not have the necessary rigidity to transmit this type of wave. As a result, S-waves are stopped or absorbed when they encounter liquid layers within the Earth.
