Question

Which of the following is true for a wave?

• A. It is a disturbance that propagates through a medium.
• B. Consecutive oscillation of particles occur along a path.
• C. Energy is transmitted in a wave.
• 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. To and fro motion of the particles results in oscillation and consecutive oscillation of particles of a medium causes propagation of wave. So all of the given options are correct.
