Which best describes the relationship between the direction of energy and wave motion in a transverse wave?

The energy direction is perpendicular to the motion of the wave.

The energy direction has no relationship to the motion of the wave.

The energy direction is in the opposite direction of the motion of the wave.

The energy direction is parallel to the motion of the wave.

The answer is the second choice (B)

EXPLANATION:
In a longitudinal wave the particle displacement is parallel to the direction of wave propagation. The animation at right shows a one-dimensional longitudinal plane wave propagating down a tube. The particles do not move down the tube with the wave; they simply oscillate back and forth about their individual equilibrium positions. Pick a single particle and watch its motion. The wave is seen as the motion of the compressed region (ie, it is a pressure wave), which moves from left to right.

The second animation at right shows the difference between the oscillatory motion of individual particles and the propagation of the wave through the medium. The animation also identifies the regions of compression and rarefaction.

Answer is (d)a brainliest would be appreciated
