Detailed Solution

Light waves, heat waves, and X-rays are examples of electromagnetic waves, which do not require any medium for their propagation.
Sound waves cannot travel through a vacuum. It needs a material medium for its propagation. Sound waves can propagate only when the vibrational energy of the particles of the medium is traveling from one point to another.
