Homework Statement
I am blur about progressive waves. My notes state that a progressive wave is one which is characterised by the movement of the wave profile with transfer of energy and momentum, is classified as progressive wave. What does it mean by saying movement of wave profile? And ropes are often used to explain waves. But how do waves travel in nature when there's like no link between the particles like in the rope? For example light.
