Study Notes
Wave Basics
- A wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium, transferring energy and momentum.
Properties of Medium
- For wave propagation, the medium should possess elasticity (ability to restore its shape) and inertia (ability to resist changes).
Characteristics of Wave Motion
- Wave motion is characterized by periodic disturbances that travel through space and time.
Types of Waves
- (No answer available in the provided text, as it only asks about what is NOT a type of wave mentioned in the text)
