Electromagnetic wave travels faster through air than metal.
Option A
Explanation:
There are different kinds of wave energy. The most significant are electromagnetic and mechanical waves. The mechanical waves propagate through the medium by transfer of energy by vibrating of particles in medium.
So, the more number of particles present in the medium, the more fast the mechanical wave can propagate. So the mechanical waves travel faster in metals consisting of more number of free charge carriers. But electromagnetic waves does not need any of the medium to propagate. So it can travel faster in air than in metals.
