<h2>Answer:D</h2>

Explanation:

Option A:

Surface waves are neither transverse nor longitudinal.They traverse perpendicularly or parallel to the wave's motion along the interface between different media.

Option B:

Transverse waves vibrate perpendicularly to the direction of the propagation of the wave.

Option C:

Sound is a longitudinal wave.Not a transverse wave.

Option D:

Transverse waves don't require a medium for propagation.But they propagate in medium too.

“Transverse waves travel through a medium of the wave's motion” is true about transverse waves.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

A transverse wave is nothing but a wave, which moves vertical to its direction of propagation. Most waves are transverse, and have a crest and trough. Surface waves are not longitudinal, but they are not transverse too. Sound waves are longitudinal, because they move in same direction of propagation.

Only transverse waves travel through a medium of the wave's motion. The propagation of a transverse wave is quite peculiar. The wave, while moving, sets the particles of medium, into the perpendicular direction, and hence, the motion takes place.

Temka [501]

5g/cm³

it is not iron.

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Density of iron = 7.874g/cm³

Mass of metal = 2000g

Volume of metal = 400cm³

Unknown:

Density of bar = ?

Is it iron = ?

Solution:

The density of a substance is its mass per unit area. Every substance have an intensive density value that typifies them all.

The density of water and other substances are the same if they maintain their level of pureness.

   Density = \frac{mass }{volume}

Density of metal bar = \frac{2000}{400} = 5g/cm³

Since this value is not the same as the given density of iron, it is not iron.
