Waves of water and sound.


reverse

Recommended Posts

Water waves are a compression and expansion of water.

So… water waves travel in water.

And… Sound waves travel in air.

 

What medium do Radio waves travel in?

 

space.

Radio waves are also photons, and particles can travel through vacuum. I believe that this property is one of the particle-states of light. How a wave can be a particle and vice versa is something I think nobody understands, much less a high school physics student.

For the record...No.

 

Water waves are gravitational/mass displacement waves.

 

Compression/expansion waves in water are sonic (sound) waves.
