Question

Which type of wave, mechanical or non-mechanical, has more speed in a medium​

Answer 1

Answer:

A wave is the disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space. There are two types of wave i.e. Mechanical and Electromagnetic.

Mechanical are those which propagate through a physical matter such as sound wave, ocean wave or earthquake wave while electromagnetic wave do not require a medium and they can even travel through vacuum such as light wave. As electromagnetic wave does not need a medium, it travels faster than mechanical wave.
