With the propagation of a longitudinal wave through a material medium, the quantities transmitted in the propagation direction are

A

Matter

B

Energy

C

Energy and matter

D

Energy, matter and momentum

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Propagation of longitudinal waves through a medium leads to transmission of energy through the medium without matter being transmitted.
There is no movement of matter (mass) and hence no momentum transfer.
