D. Fixed position ,mean position , Equilibrium position.
What is wave motion?
Wave motion is the transfer of energy and momentum from one point of the medium to another point of the medium without actual transport of matter between two points.
The particles of the medium vibrate about their equilibrium position in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave is called a longitudinal waves.
Characteristics of Wave Motion
In wave motion, the disturbance travels through the medium due to repeated periodic oscillations of the particles of the medium about their mean position (or) Equilibrium position.
Energy and momentum are transferred from one point to another without any actual transfer of the particles of the medium.
There is a regular phase difference between the particles of the medium because each particle receives disturbance little later than its preceding particle.
Therefore,
In a wave, each particle of the medium vibrates, or oscillates, around a fixed position.
