What else can I help you with?
It is possible for an electromagnetic wave to travel through a vacuum?
yes, they can travel.
What types of waves don't need a medium?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio waves, do not require a medium to propagate because they are composed of oscillating electric and magnetic fields. They can travel through a vacuum, unlike mechanical waves which require a medium for propagation.
Waves that dont require a medium are called?
Light waves and 'radio' waves (i.e. infra red, UV, xray, etc.) At one time it was thought they did have a medium. A sort of 'gelatin' that went throughout the universe. The called 'the ether'. You see the term used a lot in radio magazines of the 1910s and 1920s.
How does the non-mechanical waves move through the space?
Non-mechanical waves(radio waves) which are sent into space are nothing but electromagnetic waves similar to light waves.Unlike sound waves or water ripples(waves) which require a medium to propagate in,electromagnetic waves are self-sustaining waves.We know that a moving charge causes a magnetic field and a moving magnetic field induces an electric field.Since an electromagnetic wave comprises of both electric waves and magnetic waves which are caused by each other,therefore they dont require a medium for propagation.
How do surface waves differ form body waves?
Body waves: seismic waves that travel through the body of a medium Surface waves: seismic waves that travel along the surface of a medium and have a strong effect near the surface of the medium than it has in the interior
Which waves have shorter wavelenght's radio waves or x-rays?
X rays dont go as far as radio waves
What is the exact temperature for radio waves?
radio waves dont have a temperature because they are comprised of energy and photons, not ordinary matter
Do light waves required a medium?
They dont need it, but they can use it
What is the definition for radio active waves?
radio active waves is also called RAW meaning a radio who waves in the air joke XD i dont know eh im not interested..........SORRY XD:)
Describe how sound waves are travel?
Sound waves are caused by vibrations and travel as longitudinal waves which cause by the vibration of the molecules in air (the molecules dont actually move)
What is the fundamental difference between electromagnetic waves and other waves?
The fundamental difference is that electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to propagate, unlike other waves like sound waves which do require a medium (such as air, water, or solid material). Electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum, whereas other waves cannot. Additionally, electromagnetic waves consist of varying electric and magnetic fields oscillating perpendicular to each other, whereas other waves do not exhibit this dual field behavior.
How does light waves travel?
i dont know so tell me i dont know so tell me
