Propagation of disturbance suffered by a particle in a medium is called wave propagation
Wave Propagation is a term used to estimate the actions and characteristics of a wave of motion either in solids, liquids, gasses, or electrical radio type waves by the environment it is in and what factors affect those waves behaviors.

Which kind of wave requires a medium for propagation?
A Sound wave, water wave, earth quake wave. Electromagnetic waves (radio, light, etc.) do not require a medium for propagation.
In a transverse wave in what direction are the vibration relative to the direction of wave travel?
In a transverse wave the particle displacement is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (at right angles). In a longitudinal wave the particle displacement is parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
What is longitudial wave?
A longitudinal wave is a scalar wave with the vibration parallel to the central direction of propagation.
What is transversal waves?
Wave is a propagation of oscillations of some physical parameter (perturbation of pressure, mass density, electrical or magnetic fields...). If oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of propagation - the wave is transverse (for example - electromagnetic wave). If physical parameter oscillates along the propagation direction - the wave is longitudinal(Sound).
What is the difference between a tansverse wave and a longitudinal wave?
If the particles of the material medium vibrated in a perpendicular direction to the direction of propagation of the wave then it is said to be TRANSVERSE If the particles vibrate parallel to the direction of propagation then it will be longitudinal
What is the different modes of the radio wave propagation?
Ground wave, sky wave and space wave propagation
What type of propagation is used in telephone communication?
Wave propagation
Which kind of wave requires a medium for propagation?
A Sound wave, water wave, earth quake wave. Electromagnetic waves (radio, light, etc.) do not require a medium for propagation.
What is the space wave propagation frequency?
Space wave propagation frequency is nothing special, it is the same frequency of the wave in question, for example WLAN Wifi produces 5.2 GHz radio wave from your computer or from router, so that would be the the space wave propagation frequency in question
The speed at which the wave crests move is the?
... wave's speed of propagation.
What does propagation mean in waves?
"Propagation" means the process of the wave getting from here to there.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
Frequency and speed of propagation of the wave are independent of one another. The medium determines the speed of propagation.
In a transverse wave in what direction are the vibration relative to the direction of wave travel?
In a transverse wave the particle displacement is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (at right angles). In a longitudinal wave the particle displacement is parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
Do sound molecules move perpendicularly to the direction of wave propagation?
Sound molecules traveling through air is an example of a longitudinal wave. It moves parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
What is longitudial wave?
A longitudinal wave is a scalar wave with the vibration parallel to the central direction of propagation.
What is transversal waves?
Wave is a propagation of oscillations of some physical parameter (perturbation of pressure, mass density, electrical or magnetic fields...). If oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of propagation - the wave is transverse (for example - electromagnetic wave). If physical parameter oscillates along the propagation direction - the wave is longitudinal(Sound).
Which seismic wave causes particles in the ground to move perpendicular to the wave's propagation?
S waves, or secondary waves, are transverse seismic waves, meaning that the particles being effected by the wave are moving perpendicular to the wave's propagation.
