Which one of the following statements concerning waves is false? a transverse wave is one in which the disturbance is parallel to the direction of travel. a wave can have both transverse and longitudinal components. a wave carries energy from one place to another. a wave does not result in the bulk flow of the material of its medium. a wave is a traveling disturbance.

A transverse wave is one in which the disturbance is parallel to the direction of travel

Explanation:

There are two types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in transverse waves, the disturbance (oscillation) occurs in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave

- Longitudinal waves: in longitudinal waves, the disturbance (oscillation) occurs parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave

Therefore, we immediately see that the statement:

"A transverse wave is one in which the disturbance is parallel to the direction of travel"

is wrong, because it is actually the opposite: in a transverse wave, the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction of travel.
