Question

What are the characteristic(s) of a wave?

• A. A disturbance that propagates through the medium
• B. An oscillation that propagates through the medium
• C. Accompanied by energy transfer
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D

All of the above

Wave is a disturbance that propagates in a medium and transfers energy and momentum often without permanent displacement of particles of the medium. To and fro motion of the particles results in oscillations. So all of the given options are correct.
