which three statements are true about the wave shown? a. the wave is a longitudinal wave. b. the wave could…

Brief Explanations:

Longitudinal waves have particles vibrating parallel to wave - motion. Sound waves are longitudinal and mechanical, requiring a medium. Mechanical waves transfer energy through a medium. Electromagnetic waves don't need a medium and are transverse. The wave in the image shows particle motion suggesting it's a mechanical and potentially longitudinal wave like sound.

Answer:

A. The wave is a longitudinal wave. B. The wave could be a sound wave. C. The wave is a mechanical wave.
