What else can I help you with?
Waves that require a medium through which to travel are called electromagnetic waves True or false?
False. Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to travel; they can propagate through a vacuum.
Waves that do not require a medium are?
Electromagnetic waves do not require medium for propagation.
What is one major difference between electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves?
One major difference is the medium of propagation. Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium (can travel through vacuum) while mechanical waves require a medium (such as air, water, or solid material) in order to propagate.
Do transverse waves require a medium to propagate?
No, transverse waves do not require a medium to propagate.
What wave that need a medium in order to propagate?
Mechanical waves, such as sound waves and water waves, require a medium in order to propagate. These waves travel by transferring energy from one part of the medium to another. Electromagnetic waves, on the other hand, can propagate through a vacuum as they do not require a medium.
Do sound require a medium?
Sound waves need a medium to propagate. Light-waves and other electromagnetic wave (radio, xray) do not.
What wave which require a material medium to propagate?
Mechanical waves, like sound waves or ocean waves, require a material medium to propagate because they rely on the vibration or movement of particles in the medium to transmit energy. Electromagnetic waves, such as light or radio waves, do not require a material medium and can travel through a vacuum.
Does every wave have a medium?
No, not every wave requires a medium. Electromagnetic waves, such as light waves, can travel through a vacuum because they do not require a material medium to propagate. Sound waves, on the other hand, do require a medium, such as air, water, or solids, to propagate.
Name one kind of wave that does not require a medium?
An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.An electromagnetic wave (this includes light) does not require a physical medium - it can travel through empty space.
What kind of waves can pass 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.
Which of the following is not a mechanical wave' a transverse a longitudinal or a electromagnetic?
Electromagnetic waves are not mechanical waves, as they do not require a medium (such as air or water) to propagate. Transverse and longitudinal waves, on the other hand, are mechanical waves that require a medium to travel through.
Which type of wave does not move in a medium?
Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to propagate and can travel through the vacuum of space. Examples of electromagnetic waves include light, radio waves, and X-rays.
