Which type of wave needs a medium?
sound waves
What type of wave occurs when the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave?
Longitudinal waves occur where the motion of the medium is parallel to the waves.
What type of waves move the particles of the medium in the same direction in which the waves are traveling?
Longitudinal
Waves that do require a medium are called?
Sound waves, they need a medium to vibrate.A2. Earthquake waves and other mechanical waves also need a medium for their transmission.Ghv. Tsunamis are a type of mechanical wave, which is the kind of wave you're looking for.
What type of wave travels parallel to the medium?
longitudinal waves
What type of wave happens in a medium?
The waves that propagate through particles of a medium are mechanical waves (aka waves of vibration).
What type of waves occur when the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave?
Longitudinal waves occur where the motion of the medium is parallel to the waves.
what do most waves require?
It needs the medium to help it travel. Other examples include water waves, seismic waves, and waves traveling through a spring. Electromagnetic waves are waves that can travel through a vacuum (empty space). They don't need a medium or matter.
What type of wave requires no medium to travel through?
Waves need not require medium to travel through. Only Mechanical waves like sound waves require medium to travel through. Electromagnetic waves travel in vaccum like light waves. Some waves transmitted in a medium due to disturbances in the medium .
What type of medium is required by radio waves?
radio waves do not require a medium to travel,it can even travel through vaccum
Which type of wave needs a medium?
sound waves
What do machanical waves use to transfer energy?
The spring and the mass characteristics of their transmission medium are vital to the transmission of sound and vibration waves.
What type of wave occurs when the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave?
Longitudinal waves occur where the motion of the medium is parallel to the waves.
What type of waves move the particles of the medium in the same direction in which the waves are traveling?
Longitudinal
What type of waves move the medium at right angles to the direction of the energy?
Transverse Waves
Waves that do require a medium are called?
Sound waves, they need a medium to vibrate.A2. Earthquake waves and other mechanical waves also need a medium for their transmission.Ghv. Tsunamis are a type of mechanical wave, which is the kind of wave you're looking for.
What type of medium is required by sound waves?
Air or matter.
