Is a sound wave mechanical or electromagnetic?
Seismic waves are mechanical waves.
How are em waves different from mechanical waves?
mechanical waves need a medium to travel through, electromagnetic waves do not. Electromagnetic waves can travel through space, mechanical waves can not.:PElectromagnetic waves do not require a medium, but mechanical waves do.
What are sound waves called?
Sound waves are called mechanical waves cause they need a material medium for their flow. Not only are they mechanical, but compression & lonqitudinal. -Apex:)
What are two types of mechanical waves?
transverse and longitudinal
Unlike mechanical waves waves do not require a medium to travel through.?
Electromagnetic
When mechanical waves was discovered?
It was discovered in the mid 1800's to 1900's.
Is sound waves mechanical or waves?

What are all mechanical waves?
Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium to travel through, such as water waves, sound waves in air, and seismic waves in the Earth's crust. These waves transfer energy through the oscillation of particles in the medium.
Mechanical waves require what?
Mechanical waves require media through which they can travel.
Most waves that travel through a substance are what kind of waves?
Most waves that travel through a substance are mechanical waves. These waves require a medium (such as water, air, or solids) to propagate. Sound waves, seismic waves, and ocean waves are examples of mechanical waves.
What distinguishes waves from mechanical waves?
Mechanical waves require a medium for their propagation whereas electromagnetic waves require a medium for their propagation.
