What else can I help you with?
Does light travels in waves and is required in a medium?
Yes, it travels in waves, but it doesn't need a medium.
What is another word for the substance in which a wave travels?
A medium.
Explain how sound travels?
Sound travels in waves through a medium, such as air, water, or solid materials. When an object vibrates, it creates changes in air pressure that propagate outward as waves. These waves cause particles in the medium to oscillate back and forth, transmitting the sound energy.
What is the effect of medium on the speed of sound?
Sound travels faster through denser media because their molecules are closer together.
What is the effect of the medium on the speed of sound?
Sound travels faster through denser media because their molecules are closer together.
Which medium would sound travel the fastest?
Sound travels fastest through a nonporous solid medium, such as steel.
When a compression wave travels through a medium in what direction is the medium is displaced?
In a compression wave, the medium is displaced in the same direction that the wave is travelling. This means that the particles of the medium move closer together and then farther apart as the wave passes through.
What property of light best explain your observation?
The observation that light travels in a straight line can be explained by the property of light known as rectilinear propagation. This property states that light travels in a straight line in a homogenous medium.
The material through which a wave travels is?
The material through which a wave travels is called the medium.
Matter through which a waves travels?
"A compressible medium." "A displaceable medium."
Which term describes the bending of a wave as it travels into a different medium?
Refraction describes the bending of a wave as it travels into a different medium, due to the change in speed of the wave as it enters the new medium.
Sound travels faster in a?
"dense medium"
