light and radiation is able to experience by an observer watching the explosion from the vacuum.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Basically in the nuclear explosion, there will be an enormous of energy released as noise, heat, visible light, radiation and atmospheric wave.
  • Usually sound and wave propagate through medium but in vacuum, there will be no medium to transfer this type of energy. so there is no chance of sound and wave transfer.
  • Light and radiation travel in vacuum because they didn't need the medium to transfer .
