To complete the sentence "When sound travels in a medium ...... (the particles of the medium, the source, the disturbance, the medium) travels in form of a wave," we need to analyze what actually moves when sound propagates through a medium. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Sound Propagation**: Sound is a mechanical wave that requires a medium (solid, liquid, or gas) to travel. It travels by causing vibrations in the particles of the medium. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The options provided are: - The particles of the medium ...
