Q. Is the following a correct definition of waves?
“Waves are vibrations that transfer energy from place to place without matter (solid, liquid or gas) being transferred. Think of a Mexican wave in a football crowd - the wave moves around the stadium, while each spectator stays in their seat, only moving up then down when it's their turn.”
