A wave is caused by a disturbance that propagates through a medium, such as water or air. Waves transmit energy and information without moving matter along with them.
In a transverse wave, energy is transferred perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. This energy causes particles of matter to move up and down or side to side, creating the characteristic oscillating motion of a transverse wave. The energy is passed along the medium as the particles transmit the energy to neighboring particles, which in turn causes the wave to propagate.
Yes, all emitters transmit either a continuous wave or a pulsed waveform. Continuous wave emitters transmit a continuous stream of electromagnetic waves, while pulsed waveform emitters transmit short bursts of electromagnetic waves with periods of rest in between.
When a sound wave collides with molecules, it causes them to vibrate and transmit the sound energy through the medium. This vibration is what allows the sound wave to propagate through the material by transferring energy from one molecule to the next.
Two ways a wave can travel are through a medium, such as air or water, where the wave causes particles in the medium to vibrate and transmit energy, or through a vacuum, such as light waves that can travel through space without a medium by oscillating electrical and magnetic fields.
Sound wave particles travel through a medium by vibrating back and forth in the same direction that the sound wave is traveling. This vibration causes neighboring particles in the medium to also vibrate, passing the sound energy along.

A mechanical wave cannot transmit energy through a vacuum because it requires a medium, such as air or water, to propagate. In a vacuum, there is no medium for the wave to travel through, so it cannot transfer energy.
micro wave rays.
Yes, waves transfer energy and information into a medium as they propagate through it. This transfer of energy causes particles within the medium to oscillate and transmit the wave's energy along its path. The medium itself does not move with the wave, but rather the disturbance created by the wave is propagated through the medium.
