A

Ripple in a pond


C

D

A ball being thrown


When a wave propagates, there is a transfer of energy from one point to another. During its propagation, the particles of the medium only oscillate about their mean positions with little or no associated mass transport.

Due to propagation, the adjacent particles gain some velocity and start vibrating and hence momentum is getting transferred from one particle to another.
