all waves travel through water, some better than others, sound waves travel very well. Many time because water is denser than air the waves are subject to diffraction and reflection off thermal boundaries and around physical barriers.
Electromagnetic waves can traveled through any medium or lack of medium.
Seismic waves consist ofP waves which travel through the Earth fast. They compress the medium they travel through;S waves which also travel through the Earth, shearing the solid Earth as they go. S waves do not travel through liquid;Surface waves which can cause the Earth to undulate like water waves or surface waves that cause the Earth to shear.
Sound waves can travel through fluids, it is just that due to the physical proporties of water, sound waves are dampened much faster than they would be in gas.
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D
Primary waves can travel through liquid and solids at certain speeds but some quakes can not travel through water.
They are called sound waves. Their name does not change just because they travel in water.
electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum while water waves travel in water.
Waves travel through everything, whether they are composed of solidity or not.
Light waves and electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space. Water waves can only travel through matter. Hope this helped!

THROUGH air or water transverse waves cannot travel. But on the surface of water transverse waves can be produced
vibration
most kinds of waves need something to travel through. Water waves, for example, travel along the surface of the water. A wave can even travel along a rope. Gases (such as air), liquids (such as water), and solids (such as rope) , all act as mediums. Waves that require a medium through which travel are called mechanical waves.Some waves do not require a medium to travel through. Light can travel and carry energy through empty space. Waves that can travel without a medium are called electromagnetic waves. :)
The type of waves that travel through matter are Electromagnetic waves.
surface waves can only travel along the surface.
yes, they travel through water, air, even solid materials. electromagnetic waves can also travel through a vacuum.
Secondary waves cannot travel through anything that is completely liquid
This depends a lot on the type of waves you're talking about. Sound waves, for example, can travel through water, solid, and air mediums, but not through a vacuum. Electromagnetic waves, however, can travel in a vacuum.
