Compression or sound waves behave a lot like transverse or electromagnetic waves. Compression waves exhibit ALL BUT one of the following behaviors. That is A) reflection. B) refraction. C) transfer energy. D) travel through a vacuum.

Respuesta :

(D. travel through a vacuum.) All waves need a medium to wave. In a vacuum there is no medium to wave.


The correct choice would be

D) travel through a vacuum.

Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature and do not require a medium to travel from one point to another. On the other hand, sound waves are longitudinal waves and require a medium to travel from one point to another. hence sound waves can not travel through vacuum but electromagnetic waves can.
