What kind of Wave is an electromagnetic wave how fast does it travel?
An electromagnetic wave is a wave with electric component and magnetic component. In free space (vacuum), an electromagnetic wave travels with the speed of light, that is 3x10^8 m/s. In fact, light is also an electromagnetic wave.
Can macnetic waves travel at the speed of ligth?
Light is an electromagnetic wave. Electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light. Electric and magnetic waves don't travel on their own - the wave travels as a combined electric and magnetic wave.
Why X-ray did not in liquid?
Because it is light, a kind of wave.
Which waves travel the fastest?
The light wave, which is electromagnetic energy, is the fastest wave. The speed of light, which is a physics constant, is the speed of light in a vacuum, and no object with mass can be accelerated to this speed.
Which light wave has the fastest speed?
All electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed in vacuum.
What kind of wave does light travel as?
Light is an electromagnetic wave.
What kind of wave does not need a medium through which to travel?
a light wave?
What kind of wave is an ultra violet ray?
An ultra violet (UV) ray is an electromagnetic wave, it is the same kind as visible light wave just with a different wavelength and frequency. Both travel and the speed of light. It is a transverse wave
What type of wave does light travel as?
A sonic wave.
What kind of wave is able to travel through both matter and empty space?
A type of wave that can travel through empty space as well as through matter is electromagnetic wave. Light travels fastest in empty spaces.
Can light wave travel through air?
Yes ,....... light wave can travel through the air ... the light wave does not require any medium.
What kind of Wave is an electromagnetic wave how fast does it travel?
An electromagnetic wave is a wave with electric component and magnetic component. In free space (vacuum), an electromagnetic wave travels with the speed of light, that is 3x10^8 m/s. In fact, light is also an electromagnetic wave.
Light wave travel faster than gamma wave?
No, they travel at the same speed
What kind of wave is light considered?
Light a general term for a specific range of wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum, is not strictly just a wave, it shows particle and wave like properties, hence it being able to travel in a vacuum without a medium. However as a wave light is considered to be a transverse wave.
What kind of wave does electromagnetic energy travel in?
The wave is called an electromagnetic wave.
What kind of wave does light have?
I would rather say that light IS a wave, not that it HAS a wave. It is a type of electromagnetic wave.
How does the light travel in the air?
As an electromagnetic wave.
