Question

In which of the following media can non-mechanical waves travel?

  1. In a vacuum and a medium
  2. In vacuum but not in a medium
  3. In a medium but not in a vacuum
  4. In a medium but not in a vacuum

hintHint:

In vacuum and a medium

The correct answer is: In a vacuum and a medium


    • Electromagnetic waves are non mechanical waves that do not require a medium to propagate, unlike mechanical waves. This indicates that electromagnetic waves can propagate not only through air and solid things, but also across space.
    • The particles of non-mechanical waves can move energy from one location to another without the use of a medium, resulting in faster energy transmission in the vacuum. Light is the faster-moving wave that moves through the air.
