Which wave requires a medium for transmission light radio infrared or sound?

Sound waves require a medium, such as air, water, or solids, for transmission. Light, radio, and infrared waves can travel through a vacuum and do not require a medium for transmission.


Which requires a physical medium in which to travel light or sound?

Sound requires a physical medium, such as air, water, or solids, in order to travel because it propagates through vibrations of particles in the medium. On the other hand, light does not require a physical medium and can travel through empty space as electromagnetic waves.


Do light waves transfer energy through a medium?

No, light waves do not transfer energy through a medium. They can propagate through a vacuum where there is no medium present. Light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that carries energy but does not require a medium for its transmission.


Waves that do not require a medium are?

Electromagnetic waves do not require medium for propagation.


Who can we say light does not need to travel in medium?

Light can travel in a vacuum without the need for a medium. This is because light is composed of photons which do not require a medium, unlike other types of waves such as sound waves that do need a medium to propagate.


Is Light is an example of a mechanical wave?

No, light is not an example of a mechanical wave. Light is an example of an electromagnetic wave, which does not require a medium to propagate, unlike mechanical waves like sound waves which do require a medium.


Why does there have to be a medium for waves to travel through?

There does not have to be a medium. Light does not require a medium. Mechanical waves require a mediumAnswer 2:Not all waves require a medium for their transmission. Mechanical waves require a medium for their transmission because it is the molecules of the medium which cause the wave to propagate. However, electromagnetic waves do NOT require a medium. (for example light)


What wave require a medium to travel through?

electromagnetic. for example, light.


How can light waves move through space?

Light waves, unlike sound, do not require a medium.
