the speed of light = 299 792 458 m / s
Seismic waves are waves that travel through the Earth or other elastic body2 to 8 kilometersThe primary factor is the composition of the rock that the wave travels through. Secondarily, temperature tends to lower the wave speed and pressure tends to increase the wave speed.
The seismogram shows that P waves travel faster than S waves, as they are the first waves to arrive at the seismograph station after an earthquake occurs. P waves are compressional waves that can travel through solids, liquids, and gases, whereas S waves are shear waves that can only travel through solids.
Seismic waves are produced by earthquakes and travel through the Earth. These waves can be divided into two main types: body waves (P-waves and S-waves) that travel through the interior of the Earth, and surface waves that travel along the Earth's surface.
The type of waves that travel through matter are Electromagnetic waves.
P waves can travel through all types of matter. S waves can only travel through solids.
Ultraviolet waves are part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum which all travel as transverse waves.
-- radio waves-- microwaves-- heart waves-- infrared waves-- all of the visible colors-- ultraviolet waves-- X-rays-- gamma rays
Ultraviolet and visible light waves all travel at the same speed whenever they're all traveling through the same material.
neither... they both are electromagnetic waves and therefore travel at the same speed... but ultraviolet waves have a higher frequency and also have more energy than radio waves
Ultraviolet waves travel faster than infrared waves in space because they have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies. The speed of electromagnetic waves, including ultraviolet and infrared, in space is determined by the speed of light, which is a constant value in a vacuum.
Ultraviolet waves, like all forms of electromagnetic radiation, travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, which is approximately 186,282 miles per second (300,000 kilometers per second).
really fast man. like super fast.
Ultraviolet waves are smaller than light waves.
Sound waves cannot travel through empty space because they require air particles to transfer them. UV is a light wavelength and can travel through space (just like light from the Sun reaches the planets).
About 120m per second
Electromagnetic waves
Radio waves travel at the speed of light 300 Million meters/second, 300e6 meters/second
