Question
A transverse mechanical wave cannot travel in __________.
A transverse mechanical wave cannot travel in __________.
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B hydrogen gas
Mechanical waves need a medium to propagate. So, a mechanical wave can propagate through all the options given above. However, a transverse wave cannot be produced and propagated in gases. So, a transverse mechanical wave cannot propagate through gases, i.e. from the options, it cannot propagate through hydrogen gas.
