Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 3Q
Solution:
Electromagnetic waves can travel through vacuum, but sound waves can’t move through vacuum.
Explanation of Solution
Electromagnetic waves can travel in vacuum and does not require any medium for propagation of wave. On the other hand, sound waves need a medium for propagation. Sound waves can’t move through vacuum.
