Materials such as glass, air, and water transmit light waves better than other materials like opaque objects. These materials have physical properties that allow light to pass through without significant scattering or absorption. Additionally, materials with a high refractive index, such as diamond, can also transmit light waves effectively due to their ability to bend and refract light.

Communications satellites transmit UV waves?

No- UV is ultraviolet light. They transmit radio waves.


What characteristic of light is based on the fact that light waves do not need matter to transmit energy?

The characteristic of light based on the fact that light waves do not need matter to transmit energy is its ability to travel through a vacuum. Light can propagate in empty space, unlike sound waves which require a medium such as air to transmit energy.


Do some liquids transmit sound waves better than others?

Sound waves are longitudinal, not transverse, and they can only travel through the compression of a medium. The bulk modulus (compressablity) of this medium directly affects the speed at which the waves can travel. Because gases can compress quite easily, the waves travel slower through them than say, a liquid which is very hard to compress. So yes, if the bulk modulus for the liquids are different, then some liquids will transmit sound waves better than others.


Is medium required to transmit light waves?

No. light waves required no medium for transmission.

What do light waves transmit?

Light waves transmit energy and information through electromagnetic radiation. They can travel through a vacuum and various mediums, such as air or glass, and carry different colors and frequencies that determine their properties. Light waves are essential for vision, communication, and many other aspects of our daily lives.


What are waves that are used in television?

Radio waves, microwaves, infrared and visible light can all be used for communication. Radio waves – are used to transmit television and radio programs. Microwaves – are used to transmit satellite television and for mobile phones. Infrared – is used to transmit information from remote controls.


What do waves transfer?

Waves transfer energy, not matter. This energy can be in the form of sound, light, or motion. Waves help transmit information through space.


What are some examples of transmission waves?

Examples of transmission waves include radio waves, microwaves, infrared waves, and visible light waves. These waves are used to transmit information and energy through various mediums.

Which waves transmit energy and not matter?

Please note that any energy has a mass equivalent (calculated as E / m squared).Other than that, that's basically what all waves do - electromagnetic waves, gravity waves, sound waves, waves on a water surface, and others. The matter doesn't go from one place to another, only the energy gets transmitted.
