Explanation:

A mechanical cannot travel through empty space. So option (b) is correct.

A mechanical wave is a wave which needs a material medium for its propagation. For example sound, water waves etc . The medium required by the wave can be a solid, liquid or a gas. Empty space doesn't have any medium, so a mechanical wave cannot travel through empty space.

<h3>What is a graduated cylinder?</h3>

A graduated cylinder is also known as measuring cylinder and it can be defined as a narrow, cylindrical piece of laboratory equipment with marked lines, which are used to measure the volume of a liquid.

In order to take a reading for the measurement of the volume of a liquid such as water, you should ensure that your eye level is even with the center of the meniscus.

In this scenario, the volume of the liquid in this diagram would be 36.5 mL because each of the small lines on the graduated cylinder measures 0.5 mL.
