Q: Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of waves?
Solution:
Conduction is a mode of heat transfer, not a characteristic of wave motion. The other options are properties of waves.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what a wave is. A wave is a disturbance that transfers energy through space or matter.
Step 2: Identify characteristics of waves. Common characteristics include wavelength, frequency, amplitude, and speed.
Step 3: Look at the options given in the question. Determine which options describe wave characteristics.
Step 4: Recognize that conduction is a method of heat transfer, not related to wave motion.
Step 5: Conclude that conduction is the option that is NOT a characteristic of waves.
