What kind of wave can travel through vacuum?
Electromagnetic waves, such as visible light, radio waves, and X-rays, can travel through vacuum because they do not require a medium to propagate. These waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that can travel through empty space.
What kind of wave is able to travel through both matter and empty space?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through both matter and empty space. This is because electromagnetic waves do not require a medium to propagate, unlike mechanical waves such as sound waves which rely on a medium such as air or water.
Which kind of energy travels as waves and moves through empty space?
Electromagnetic waves, which includes light. Also, gravitational waves.
What kind of wave can travel only through matter?
A mechanical wave, such as a sound wave, can only travel through matter because it requires a medium to propagate. Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through both matter and empty space.
If sound needs a medium to travel how do astronauts in space speak to people on the ground What kind of energy conversion is involved?
Astronauts communicate with people on the ground through radio waves, which do not require a medium to travel through space. This is an example of the conversion of sound energy into electromagnetic energy for transmission. On the ground, the electromagnetic waves are converted back into sound waves that we can hear.
What kind of waves can travel through both a medium or empty space?
Electromagnetic.
What do electromagnetic waves need to travel?
Electromagnetic waves don't need anything to travel. This kind of waves does not need a medium to move through, therefore they can even travel through outer space.
What kind of wave can travel through vacuum?
Electromagnetic waves, such as visible light, radio waves, and X-rays, can travel through vacuum because they do not require a medium to propagate. These waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that can travel through empty space.
What kind of waves travel through earth?
sound waves?

Which kind of energy travels as waves and moves through empty space?
Electromagnetic waves, which includes light. Also, gravitational waves.
What kind of waves travel through all layers?
Primary waves.
What is the only kind of wave that does not need a solid liquid or gas medium to pass through?
The only kind of wave that does not require a medium to pass through is an electromagnetic wave. These waves can travel through empty space and do not need a material medium for propagation. Examples of electromagnetic waves include light waves, radio waves, and X-rays.
What kind of waves can't travel through the core of the Earth?
S-waves.
What kind of waves travel through matter?
Sound waves and gamma rays.
What is the difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves with regard to travel?
Mechanical waves need some kind of material to transmit through. They involve the shaking and passing of energy through matter. Electromagnetic waves don't need a medium to travel through. Outer space is considered a vaccuum, there is no matter to shake back and forth to create a wave. This is why electromagnetic waves can travel through solids, liquids, and why they travel faster.
What kind of waves can travel only through a medium?
Longitudinal
