Why is it that energy is never transfered in a direction opposite to the direction of wave propagation?

Since the wave carries the energy, it kind of makes sense that the energy movesin the same direction as the wave moves.

When a transverse wave moves through matter the matter moves in the same direction as the wave true or false?

When a wave propagation takes place in a material medium no particle of the medium moves along with the wave. Only the partciles of the medium make vibrations or oscillations. These are of two type One if the particles vibrate simple harmonically in the direction of propagation then it is said to be LONGITUDINAL If the vibrations are perpendicular to the direction of porpagation then it will be said to be TRANSVERSE


If a space probe is in interstellar space how does it move?

The same way it moves everywhere else - by ejecting matter on one end, which pushes it in the opposite direction.
