Question

In which of the following media can a mechanical wave travel?

  1. In a medium but not in a vacuum
  2. Neither in a medium nor a vacuum
  3. In a vacuum as well as in a medium
  4. In vacuum but not in a medium

hintHint:

Mechanical waves needs a medium.

The correct answer is: In a medium but not in a vacuum


    • A mechanical waves needs medium particles to travel.
    • It cannot travel through vacuum.
    • So, the correct option is a.
