There does not have to be a medium. Light does not require a medium. Mechanical waves require a medium
Answer 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)
Radiation doesnt need a medium because it travels through space
They can both travel through a medium.
The molecule of the medium vibrates at the dirction in which the wave travels
waves are easily travel in medium.....
Vacuum
Waves need not require medium to travel through. Only Mechanical waves like sound waves require medium to travel through. Electromagnetic waves travel in vaccum like light waves. Some waves transmitted in a medium due to disturbances in the medium .

a medium. but longitudinal waves do not have to travel through a medium. This is why transverse waves cannot vibrate through space.a medium. but longitudinal waves do not have to travel through a medium. This is why transverse waves cannot vibrate through space.

Not all waves require mediums to propagate.Sound waves can travel through solid, liquid and gaseous mediums, while, electromagnetic waves do not require any medium to travel through.
waves are easily travel in medium.....
Sound waves need a medium to travel through - the medium may be solid, liquid, or gaseous. Electromagnetic waves (including light) can also travel through empty space.
Yes, mechanical waves do need a medium in order to travel. Other waves, such as light, do not (thus they can travel through space).
They travel through a material medium.
The biggest difference is that mechanical waves require a medium to travel through and electromagnetic waves do not.
No.
