Waves do not carry matter. While waves can transport energy and information, they do not physically transport objects or substances from one place to another.
All waves carry energy. This energy can be transferred from one place to another without transferring matter.
Different waves can carry energy or information from one place to another. For instance, electromagnetic waves like light carry energy, while sound waves carry vibrations that our ears perceive as sound. Water waves transfer energy through the water, such as in ocean waves.
Waves carry energy through a medium, such as sound waves in air or water waves in the ocean. They can also carry information, as in the case of radio waves transmitting signals.
Electromagnetic waves carry energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation.
Mechanical waves carry energy and momentum through a medium by causing particles in the medium to oscillate. Examples of mechanical waves include sound waves, water waves, and seismic waves.
