What is wave motion?
What is wave motion?
- Transfer of both matter and energy without momentum
- Transfer of energy and momentum without the transport of matter (correct)
- Transfer of matter without the transport of energy and momentum
- Transfer of momentum without the transport of energy and matter
How are standing waves different from progressive waves?
How are standing waves different from progressive waves?
- Progressive waves do not transfer energy and momentum between particles of the medium, while standing waves do.
- Standing waves transfer energy and momentum between particles of the medium, while progressive waves remain confined without transfer of energy and momentum.
- Standing waves propagate through the medium, while progressive waves do not propagate.
- Standing waves remain confined without transfer of energy and momentum, while progressive waves transfer energy and momentum between particles of the medium. (correct)
