Characteristics of wave motion. Some of the, Important characteristics of wave motion are as, follows :, , (7) Ina wave motion, the disturbance travels through, the medium due to repeated periodic oscillations of the particles of the medium about their, mean positions., , (i) The energy is transferred from one place to, another without any actual transfer of the, particles of the medium., , (111) Each particle receives disturbance a little later, than its preceding particle i.e, there is a regular, phase difference between one particle and the, next., , (7) The velocity with which a wave travels is, different from the velocity of the Particles |, ____with which they vibrate about their mean, [ . ~‘“positions. ee
