What kind of wave are sound waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves; they travel from side to side, not up and down like transverse waves.
Light and sound waves have many similar properties however light waves are what while sound waves are what?
Light waves are eletromagnetic waves and sound waves are mechanical waves. Additionally, a light wave is a transverse wave that does not require a medium through which to travel. Sound waves, on the other hand, are longitudinal waves where the source transfers the mechanical energy of the sound wave into the medium so it 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.
Why sound need medium while it propagation?
Because sound waves are mechanical vibrations of material matter. You can't have sound waves in a space where there's no material to vibrate.
Is sunlight and radiowaves a good example of compression waves?
No, sunlight and radiowaves are not compression waves. Sunlight consists of electromagnetic waves, while radiowaves are a type of electromagnetic wave in the radio frequency range. Compression waves are mechanical waves that require a medium to propagate, such as sound waves.
Sound waves are examples of what?
sound waves are a example of mechanical waves
Why are sound waves not considered a mechanical wave?
Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium in which to travel, i.e., a solid or fluid. As sound needs a medium to travel, sound is a mechanical wave.
Are sound waves examples of mechanical waves?
Yes it is.
Is a sound wave mechanical or electromagnetic?
Seismic waves are mechanical waves.
What wave travels through only matter?
Sound waves. No medium (matter) to carry it, no sound.
How are sound waves and seismic waves alike?
they're mechanical waves
Do mechanical waves have sound?
yes
What waves are mechanical?
Mechanical wave needs a medium to travel. Examples :- Sound Wave, Seismic Wave etc.
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:)
Are sound waves mechanical in nature?
Yes: they are compression-waves in the medium transmitting the sound.
What converts sound waves into mechanical movement?
through mediums ANSWER: A speaker will covert sound waves into mechanical movement. To prove see sound feedback.
Sound waves are waves.?
sounds waves are longitudinal and mechanical waves
