What else can I help you with?
What is vibrations that travel through earth carrying the energy released during and earthquake?
A specific type of mechanical wave known as a seismic wave.
How does a satellites move in space when its vacuum?
well space is like a vacuum you cant escape it and sound wave do not travel in space but space isn't literally a vacuum so they move by rockets and the gravity of earth
Does sound travel outside the earths atmosphere in space?
No. Sound is simply vibrations of particles that travel in a sort of "wave" motion. Since there is no medium (particles of matter) in space, it is not possible for there to be sound.Sound waves require a medium to travel through. They travel by knocking particles into other particles, causing a vibration to be transmitted.As outer-space is a vacuum, there is no matter present; this means that there is no medium for sound waves to travel through. Therefore, sound cannot travel in space.
What term is defined as a wave that can travel through empty space and is formed by energized electrons falling from one electron level to a lower electron level?
Light
Can p waves travel through gases?
In relation to seismic body waves, an "S-wave" is a type of transverse wave that travels through the interior of the Earth. When this type of wave is formed, it travels 40% slower than compressional "P-waves", so their effect is recorded secondary to the initial P-wave. Horizontally polarized S waves create a condition in which the ground moves alternately from one side and to the other, perpendicular to the direction of energy propagation. S-waves can travel only through solids because liquids and gases cannot support shear stresses.
Can sound wave travel through space or matter?
Type your answer here... yes because of the vibration
Light is one type of wave that can travel through empty space to transfer?
yes, electomagnetic
Are microwaves in space?
yes, they are also a type of electromagnetic waves. any EM wave can travel in space as they can pass through vacuum.
What type of wave can transfer energy without medium?
the wave which does not travel through a medium is called electromagnetic wave.
Why does an electromagnetic wave in space never slow down?
In empty space, an electromagnetic wave can only travel at one speed - the speed of light.In empty space, an electromagnetic wave can only travel at one speed - the speed of light.In empty space, an electromagnetic wave can only travel at one speed - the speed of light.In empty space, an electromagnetic wave can only travel at one speed - the speed of light.
What type of wave does light travel as?
A sonic wave.
What type of wave does sound travel in?
Longitudinal Wave
What makes a wave electromagnetic?
A wave is electromagnetic when it is composed of synchronized electric and magnetic fields that oscillate perpendicular to each other in space as they propagate. This type of wave does not require a medium to travel through and can travel through a vacuum, as seen with light waves.
What is an example of a wave that can travel through empty spaces?
Light waves can travel through empty spaces. Any type of electromagnetic waves, from below ELF (<< 3 Hz) up through gamma rays (> 30 EHz) can travel through empty space. Visible light is just the one band from 430 THz to 790 THz. The only type of waves that can travel through empty space are electromagnetic waves.
What medium in the wave traveling through?
The medium through which a wave travels depends on the type of wave. For example, sound waves travel through air, water waves travel through water, and seismic waves travel through the Earth's interior. Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through a vacuum, like space.
What type of wave cannot travel completely through water?
The S Wave (Secondary Wave) cannot travel through water. On the P Wave (Primary Wave) and the Surface Wave can travel through water.
What type of wave travels faster through a gas than a solid can be used to take images of bones and travels at 300000000 ms through space?
The type of wave described is an X-ray wave. X-rays travel faster through gas than solids due to less resistance. In space, X-rays travel at the speed of light, which is approximately 300,000,000 meters per second.
