How do you hear yourself in space without a space suit?

Sound cannot travel in empty space. But, sound may be able to travel through your body.


What are not able to travel through empty space ultraviolet waves or sound waves?

Sound waves cannot travel through empty space because they require air particles to transfer them. UV is a light wavelength and can travel through space (just like light from the Sun reaches the planets).


Why is light able to propagate through empty space as well as through various mediums?

Light is able to propagate through empty space and various mediums because it is an electromagnetic wave that does not require a medium to travel through. This means that light can travel through a vacuum, such as outer space, as well as through materials like air, water, and glass.


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.


What waves transfer energy through empty space?

Electromagnetic wave


Why are light waves able to travel to space?

Light waves are able to travel through space due to their electromagnetic nature. They do not need a medium, such as air or water, to propagate, making them able to travel through the vacuum of space. This property allows light from stars and other celestial objects to reach us on Earth.


Sound must move through matter how is light different?

Sound requires a medium, such as air or water, to travel, while light can travel through a vacuum like space. Sound is a mechanical wave that needs particles to propagate, whereas light is an electromagnetic wave that can travel through empty space due to its different nature.


How does radiation from the sun travel through space?

Radiation from the sun travels through space in the form of electromagnetic waves, specifically in the form of visible light, ultraviolet light, and other wavelengths. These waves do not require a medium to propagate and travel through the vacuum of space at the speed of light.


Why are rockets good for space travel?

Rockets aren't necessarily good for space travel they are a necessity. You cant leave earth without a rocket... you wont be able to break through the atmosphere.


Will we be able to travel space in the near future?

We can travel in space now. We do not have to wait for the future.


Does waves move energy through space no matter what?

Yes, waves are a way in which energy is transferred through space. Different types of waves, such as electromagnetic waves or seismic waves, carry energy from one place to another without the need for a medium.


What happens when you yell in space?

In space, sound cannot travel because there is no medium for it to propagate through, like air. Therefore, if you were to yell in space, the vibrations created by your vocal cords would not be able to reach any other objects or people.
