A mechanical wave generally does NOT require a medium to propagate.
Sound propagates through a longitudinal wave, a type of mechanical wave.
Yes, a sound wave is a mechanical wave. Sound waves need a medium (like air) to travel through. The energy of the wave, the mechanical energy, is transferred into the medium through which it is propagated.
Sound travels in longitudinal waves, which means that the particles of the medium move in the same direction as the wave is propagating. This is in contrast to transverse waves where the particles move perpendicular to the wave's direction.
Radio waves are electromagnetic. That's how they can get down here from satellites.
Light is an electromagnetic wave. It consists of electric and magnetic fields that oscillate perpendicular to each other and to the direction of the wave's propagation. This is in contrast to mechanical waves, like sound waves, which require a medium to travel through.
A tidal wave is a water wave so it is a mechanical wave.
A mechanical wave.
Yes, an ocean wave is a mechanical wave, since the water is the medium of the wave.
Mechanical wave needs a medium to travel. Examples :- Sound Wave, Seismic Wave etc.
No, a radio wave is not an example of a mechanical wave. A mechanical wave requires a medium to travel through, such as water or air, while a radio wave can travel through a vacuum because it is an electromagnetic wave.
Sound propagates through a longitudinal wave, a type of mechanical wave.
A mechanical wave is not an electromagnetic wave.
yes, it is. But mechanical waves can be as well as non longitudinal!
Yes, a sound wave is a mechanical wave. Sound waves need a medium (like air) to travel through. The energy of the wave, the mechanical energy, is transferred into the medium through which it is propagated.
Mechanical.
mechanical comperisional wave.
yes it is
