what mechanical waves needs a medium to travel through?
A. all mechanical waves need a medium to travel through
B. surface waves only
C. transverse and longitudinal waves only
D. longitudinal and surface waves only
A) all mechanical waves need a medium to travel through. This is true because mechanical waves move in a wave like manner at the atomic level. This is why an table vibrates when you put a speaker on top of it .
Answer: A. All mechanical waves needs a medium to travel through.
Explanation:
