Is it possible for a electomagnetic wave to travel through matter?

Answer 1

No. Light cannot pass through glass or water. Light bulbs do not shine, and

flashlights are a myth. The presence of air alone is enough to totally block the

passage of heat, such as from a fireplace or heat lamp.

Not only that! Radio waves cannot penetrate walls ... the reason why radios,

TVs, and cellphones are completely useless inside the walls of a home.

Finally, X-rays are totally blocked by the presence of tooth enamel or human skin,

and microwave radiation is utterly unable to penetrate leftover meatloaf, and it

bounces off harmlessly.

Answer 2

Yes, electromagnetic waves can travel through matter, but the extent to which they can penetrate depends on the properties of the material. Some materials, like glass and air, allow electromagnetic waves to travel through with minimal absorption, while others, like metals, can reflect or absorb these waves more readily.
