Can mechanical waves pass though a vacuum?

Mechanical waves can't pass through a vacuum. Mechanical waves need something to pass through. Space is generally considered a vacuum, with nothing in it to transmit a mechanical wave.


Can radio waves pass through a vacuum?

Yes, radio waves can pass through a vacuum because they are a form of electromagnetic waves. Unlike sound waves, which require a medium to travel through, electromagnetic waves do not need a medium and can propagate through empty space.


What kind of waves can pass through a vacuum?

Electromagnetic waves, such as light waves and radio waves, can pass through a vacuum because they do not require a medium to propagate. Sound waves, on the other hand, require a material medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through and cannot propagate through a vacuum.


Can electromagnetic waves pass through vacuum?

Yes they can. Sunlight is just such a wave!


Can all electromagnetic waves pass through vacuum?

Yes, all electromagnetic waves can pass through vacuum because they do not require a medium to propagate. This includes visible light, radio waves, microwaves, and X-rays.


Can electromagnetic waves travel through matter through a vacuum?

Electromagnetic waves such as light can pass through material medium such as water, glass etc and at the same time it could pass through vacuum ie a medium of free space.


What medium can a sound wave pass through?

Sound waves can pass through mediums such as air, water, and solids, as they require a material medium to propagate. Sound waves cannot pass through a vacuum as there are no particles for the waves to vibrate and travel through.


What waves can pass through a medium?

Essentially any matter ( Solid, liquid or gas ) But not in a vacuum (ie in space)


What materials will sound travel through?

Sound waves will travel through gases, liquids, and solids. Sound waves cannot pass through a vacuum.


Does sound pass through vacuum?

No, sound cannot pass through a vacuum because sound requires a medium, such as air, water, or a solid material, to travel through. In a vacuum, there are no particles for sound waves to propagate through, so they cannot travel.


Can mechanical waves pass thorough vacuum?

no


Can compressional waves travel through a vacuum?

No, compressional waves require a medium to travel through, so they cannot travel through a vacuum where there is no matter. Sound waves, which are compressional waves, cannot propagate through a vacuum.
