Which of the following explanations is correct about the wave that travels through the medium?
A. The vibration that produced the wave must have been perpendicular to the direction of motion of the resulting wave, because the figure shows that the resulting wave is a longitudinal wave.
B. The vibration that produced the wave must have been perpendicular to the direction of motion of the resulting wave, because the figure shows that the resulting wave is a transverse wave.
C. The vibration that produced the wave must have been parallel to the direction of motion of the resulting wave, because the figure shows that the resulting wave is a longitudinal wave.
D. The vibration that produced the wave must have been parallel to the direction of motion of the resulting wave, because the figure shows that the resulting wave is a transverse wave.
