Question

During the propagation of wave :

• A. There is transfer of energy from one particle to another without any actual transfer of the particles of the medium
• B. There is transfer of energy from one particle to another with transfer of the particles of the medium
• C. There is no transfer of energy from one particle to another.
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A There is transfer of energy from one particle to another without any actual transfer of the particles of the medium

During propagation of waves energy is transferred from one particle to to another without transfer of particles. This happens due to vibration of particles.

When the wave pulse is propagating, the vibration of particle induces vibration in neighbour particle, thus the disturbance (wave pulse) propagates through medium without transfer of particles from one position to another psostion.
$\therefore$Option $\left(a\right)$ is correct.
