Q. With the propogation of a longitudinal wave through a material medium, the quantities transmitted in the propogation direction are

AIPMTAIPMT 1992Waves

Solution:

In case of longitudinal wave, the particles maximum parallel or antiparallel to the velocity of wave. Hence they transmit energy and momentum in the direction of propagation.
