The fundamental principle applied to the transport, storage or containment of radioactive material is that the protection comes from:

the distance underground that the sample is stored

the rating of the waste level on the outside of the container

the design and security of the packaging that encloses the radioactive matter

the speed at which the radioactive material is transported from the production facility to the storage facility

If we compare and contrast electromagnetic waves with sound waves, all but one statement is true. that is a) sound waves require a medium to travel while electromagnetic waves do not. b) electromagnetic waves can travel through the vacuum of space while sound waves cannot. c) electromagnetic waves must have a medium in which to travel, but sound waves can travel anywhere. eliminate d) sound waves must bounce off of matter in order to travel while electromagnetic waves do not require matter to be present.
