Just the disturbance produced at one point gets transferred to other locations. ie from source to the receiver. In case of mechanical wave, such as sound, the push and pull would be quickly transferred through the material medium. But in case of electromagnetic wave, such as light even through free space ie vacuum, the electrical and magnetic disturbances are quickly transmitted.

What is it that moves from source to receiver and wave motion?
The wavelength of a transverse wave is the distance between successive crests.
What moves from source to receiver in a wave motion?
Just the imparted energy. As with water or electrons in a wire the energy moves and the medium stays in its local area.
Is the wave transport water molecules from the source of vibration?
Water does not travel along with the wave. As the wave moves over the water, each little piece of water moves up and down and forward and back, but after the wave has moved on the water is in the same place. That is a common feature of wave motion. The energy is passed along the wave but the medium itself does not move with the wave.
A wave barrier is produced when a wave source moves?
faster than the wave it produces
What is A wave whose source is some form of repeating motion?
since wave
What moves from source to receiver in wave motion?
Energy.

How does the motion of a wave change?
the motion of a wave changes when it moves
What moves from source to receiver in a wave motion?

What motion best describes the way a wave moves?
a sweeping motion
What seismic wave moves in a push-pull motion?
the Chianti wave

Is a pendulum a wave?
A pendulum moves in simple harmonic motion. If a graph of the pendulum's motion is drawn with respect with respect to time, the graph will be a sine wave. Pure tones are experienced when the eardrum moves in simple harmonic motion. In these cases "wave" refers not to the thing moving, but to the graph representing the movement.
Wave in which particles of the medium vibrate in up and down motion?
A transverse wave is when the direction of oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of the source.
What is bulk motion?
Bulk motion is a type of motion that an object does. The object moves in a wave-like formation instead of just the waves moving.
