7.

Mechanical waves progate or move through a medium because ______________.

the particles of the medium are able to move along the curved wavelike pathway

one particle pushes or pulls on the adjacent particle which pushes or pulls on the next particle

the initial vibration of the medium causes the medium to assume the wavelike shape and this shape subsequently moves from one location to another.

Which of the following categories of waves require a medium in order to transport energy from one location to another?

mechanical

electromagnetic
