Properties of the medium for wave propagation, Physics

Assignment Help:

Essential properties of the medium for wave propagation:

(i)  Elasticity: So that particle can return to their mean position, after having been disturbed.

(ii) Inertia : So that molecules can save energy and overshoot their mean position.

(iii)Minimum friction amongst the particles of the medium.

(iv)Uniform density of the medium.
