What kinds of energy travel through matter?
Mechanical, thermal, and electromagnetic energy can travel through matter. Mechanical energy involves the movement of objects or particles within a substance. Thermal energy is the movement of heat through matter. Electromagnetic energy, such as light or radio waves, can also pass through various types of material.
A wave that travels trough empty space or matter?
Electromagnetic waves, such as light, can travel through empty space as they do not require a medium to propagate. They consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields that carry energy from one place to another. Sound waves, on the other hand, require a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through.
Which types of materials can sounds pass through?
Sounds can pass through solids, liquids, and gases. The ability of a material to allow sound to pass through is influenced by factors such as density, elasticity, and thickness. Materials like air, water, wood, and metal are examples of substances that allow sound to travel through them.
What types of matter does sound travel through?
Sound travels through all matter but some materials either absorb sound, reflect sound, or just slow sound down.
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 state of matter do P and S waves travel through?
P waves can travel through all types of matter. S waves can only travel through solids.
What kind of waves originate at the focus and can travel through all types of matter?
p waves

Can sound pass through rocks?
Sound is a vibration that passes through matter. Sound is capable of traveling through virtually any type of matter, although some types allow sound to travel further or faster. Rock, however, allows sound to travel much more quickly than air does. In fact, elephants communicate with each other from miles away by sending very low pitch rumbling sounds through their feet and into the ground, and then, using their feet, they can detect sounds coming from other elephants.

What is a wave that can travel through matter and space?
All electromagnetic waves travel through space. All electromagnetic waves travel through certain types of matter. Some electromagnetic waves (neutrinos and others) pass through all known matter) This is really an extremely complex question, which preys on the nature of waves themselves. I would direct the questioner to read one of the following books: A Brief History of Time (Prof. Stephen Hawking) Coming of Age in the Milky Way (Timothy Ferris)
Does light tracks through all types of matter?
no.
Can radiation travel though space?
All types of radiation can travel through space.
Are Low Frequency sounds are transmitted further than high frequency sounds?
No. They are both waves it depends solely on the medium they are travelling through. Only different types of waves travel longer or shorter distances (uv further than sound etc) :)
What are 3 types of waves?
Three types of waves are mechanical waves, electromagnetic waves, and matter waves. Mechanical waves require a medium to travel through, such as sound waves in air or water waves in the ocean. Electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum and include light waves and radio waves. Matter waves are associated with particles at the quantum level and exhibit wave-particle duality.
