What else can I help you with?
When waves travel through a medium they carry the medium with them is this true or false?
False. Waves do not carry the medium with them as they travel through it. Instead, they transfer energy through the medium without permanently displacing the particles of the medium.
What can a medium travel thru?
Nothing (say a vacuum). The medium is what the sound travels through.
What waves need a medium to travel in?
Mechanical waves, such as sound waves, require a medium to travel through. These waves propagate by causing particles in the medium to vibrate and transfer the energy of the wave. Electromagnetic waves, such as light waves, do not require a medium and can travel through a vacuum.
What type of heat transfer does NOT require anything to travel through?
Radiation is a type of heat transfer that does not require a medium to travel through. It can occur through space and air, as it involves the transfer of heat energy in the form of electromagnetic waves.
Since sound is a mechanical wave sound needs a what to travel through?
Sound needs a medium to travel through. This medium can be air, water, or a solid material like metal. Sound waves transfer energy by vibrating particles in the medium they are traveling through.
What type of wave can transfer energy without medium?
the wave which does not travel through a medium is called electromagnetic wave.
When waves travel through a medium they carry the medium with them is this true or false?
False. Waves do not carry the medium with them as they travel through it. Instead, they transfer energy through the medium without permanently displacing the particles of the medium.
What is transferred through a medium?
Disturbances that transfer energy, or waves. Mechanical waves must have a medium to travel.

How are electromagnet waves different from mechanical waves?
Electromagnetic waves can travel through space or a medium while mechanical waves need matter to transfer energy.Apex- They don't require a medium to travel through.
The matter through which waves transfers energy?
The matter through which waves transfer energy is called the medium. Waves can travel through different mediums such as air, water, and solids, and they transfer energy by causing particles in the medium to vibrate.
What do electromagnetic waves and mechanical waves have in common?
Both types of waves are forms of energy that transfer without the transfer of matter. They both involve oscillations or vibrations, but electromagnetic waves do not require a medium for propagation, while mechanical waves do.
What waves transfer from one place to another?
All waves can travel from one place to another as long as they have a medium to travel through. The only waves that do not need a medium are electromagnetic waves. When using the word "transfer" though. Waves transfer energy; waves themselves are not transfered they simply travel.
Why can't sound travel through a medium?
Sound cannot travel through a vacuum because it requires a medium, such as air, water, or a solid material, to propagate as a mechanical wave. In a vacuum, there are no particles for the sound waves to transfer energy through, so the waves cannot propagate.
