Question
which type of wave can travel through a vacuum? (1 point)
light
mechanical
seismic
sound
Brief Explanations
Mechanical, seismic, and sound waves require a medium (like matter) to travel, as they propagate by disturbing particles in a substance. Light is an electromagnetic wave, which does not rely on a physical medium and can move through the empty space of a vacuum.
