- Wave motion: The type of disturbance that travels through a medium due to repeated vibrations of the particles of the medium about their mean positions is called wave motion.
There are two types of wave motion:
- Longitudinal wave motion: It is that wave motion in which individual particles of the medium execute simple harmonic motion about their mean position along the same direction, in which the wave is propagated.
- For example: Sound waves
- Transverse wave motion: Vibration of particles in a medium and the propagation of waves are perpendicular to each other.
- Example: Waves in the surface of the water, waves in a string.
EXPLANATION:
- Sound waves produced in the gas are longitudinal. So option 1 is correct.
