How fast do gravity waves move in space?
Gravitational waves move at the speed of light in space, which is about 186,282 miles per second.
How fast do all EM waves move?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light, radio waves, and X-rays, all travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, which is approximately 299,792 kilometers per second (186,282 miles per second).
How fast can a wave move?
The speed of a wave depends on the medium it is moving through. In general, sound waves travel at around 340 m/s in air, electromagnetic waves (such as light) travel at 300,000 km/s in a vacuum, and ocean waves can travel as fast as 750 km/h in deep water during a storm.
How much faster are electromagnetic wave than sound waves?
Electromagnetic waves in vacuum move about 881 thousand timesas fast as sound in sea-level air.
What are waves that move from side to side?
Transverse waves move perpendicular to the direction of the wave's motion. As the wave travels, the particles in the medium oscillate up and down or side to side. Examples of transverse waves include light waves, water waves, and seismic S-waves.
How fast do gravity waves move in space?
Gravitational waves move at the speed of light in space, which is about 186,282 miles per second.
Why does compression happen?
Sound waves move very fast
Are s-waves slow or fast?
S-waves are slower than P-waves, which are the fastest seismic waves. S-waves are shear waves that move in a back-and-forth motion, causing particles to move perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
Do sound waves particles move fast though a solid?
Yes, they do. Sound waves move fastest through solids, less fast through liquids, and slowest through gasses. This is because the molecules of solids are closer together, while those of gasses are further apart, creating more space that the waves must jump to move.
How fast are the p waves compared to s waves?
P waves arrive a couple seconds to a few minutes before s waves.
How fast must a boat move to produce a bow wave?
The boat must be going faster then the waves it is creating
How fast do electromagentic waves move?
At the speed of light - about 300,000 km/sec (3 x 108 m/sec)
What do waves move through?
Different types of waves move in different patterns. Ocean waves move in a circular pattern while sound waves move in a sinusoidal pattern.
How much time to people have to get away from a tsunami?
It depend how fast and how strong the waves are but people only have a few seconds to move away.

What is released when waves break?
When waves break energy is released- sound or noise is an indicator of a change in energy. Also, because waves move so fast, when they fold and hit the water, the bonds between the molecules break apart to release energy.
