It is possible for a medium itself to travel, but in that case case it isn't called a wave, but a current. For example, water flowing in a river.
Why does an egg floats in salt solution but not in fresh water?

Is it possible for water to travel up hill?
Yes it is possible for water to travel up hill. This phenomenon is known as "capillary action" and it occurs when water molecules are attracted to a surface like a paper towel and the molecules stick together forming a sort of chain. This chain of water molecules then moves up the surface. Some examples of capillary action include: Water traveling up the stem of a plant Water climbing up the sides of a glass Water moving through tiny pores in soilCapillary action is an important factor in the water cycle allowing water to move from the ground and into the atmosphere. Capillary action also helps plants to absorb water from the soil.

How is it possible for water to travel at 600 MPH?
because it can
Is it possible to travel at the speed of light in water?
The speed of light in water is less than the speed of light in space. Only light can travel at the speed of light.
How does water affect the travel of radio frequency?
Water affects the travel of radio frequency in terms of attenuation. For example, sea water has high attenuation, causing communication hardly possible.
What is it about our atmosphere that makes the water cycle possible?
Atmosphere helps in providing various conditions for water to exist in different states. Hence making water cycle possible.

What type of soil will hold the most water clay or silt?
clay because it has the smallest particles thus making it difficult for water to travel through.
Why did early civilzations have to develope around water?
Early civilizations developed around water because people need water to farm and to live. Water is vital to life. Ancient Egypt developed on the Nile River, and without the Nile, Egypt would be a complete desert and civilization couldn't have been possible there.
What is the reason for the Batts and Fallam expedition?
