What are waves that travel through space at the speed of light called?

All electromagnetic waves travel through space at the "speed of light". Light is one form of electromagnetic waves.


What form of energy can travel through space at the speed of light?

(a) Electromagnetic waves; that includes light. (b) Gravity waves.


How fast do gravitational waves travel through space?

Gravitational waves travel through space at the speed of light, which is about 186,282 miles per second.


What materials can light travel through faster than it travels through air?

Light can travel faster through a vacuum than through air. In a vacuum, light travels at its maximum speed of about 299,792 kilometers per second. This is because there are no particles in a vacuum to slow down the light's speed.


Is it true that different kinds of E-M waves travel through space at different speeds?

No. All E-M waves travel through space at the same speed, known as the"Speed of Light".


How fast do waves travel through space?

all electromagnetic waves travel at the same speed through space. This is the speed of light, or 300 000 000 m/s (3x108 m/s).


How does radiation from the sun travel through space?

Radiation from the sun travels through space in the form of electromagnetic waves, specifically in the form of visible light, ultraviolet light, and other wavelengths. These waves do not require a medium to propagate and travel through the vacuum of space at the speed of light.


What speed do electromagnetic energy travel through space?

186,000 miles or 300,000,000 meters per second. The speed of light.


Do electromagnetic waves all travel at the same speed through space?

Through a vacuum ... yes. Through outer space, which is not quite a vacuum ... not quite, but very very close.


Can you travel through time in space?

Theoretically, it is possible to travel through time: by travelling at a great speed. But the speed at which you would have to travel would be faster than the speed of light, and would therefore kill every known living being.


Would light travel faster through space or wind?

It would travel faster through space since there are no particles to get in its way. The wind is an opposing force so it is harder to move faster. The difference between the two would be negligble but specifically, light moves faster through space.


Do photons travel forwards or backwards through time?

Photons do not travel through time. This is due to the fact that the faster you travel through space, the slower you travel through time. In other words, if an object is standing still, it is traveling at the speed of light through time, and since a photon travels at the speed of light through space, it is not traveling through time. -- Asker here, I hope no one minds me editing in to expand on the question/answer given. Surely the answer must be more complex. If a photon does not travel through time, then that could potentially violate/invalidate causality.
