A mechanical wave is an oscillation (periodic motion) that travels (propagates) through a medium and:
The wave motion transports (carries) the energy without carrying any mass;
The wave moves with the same speed (when it propagates) in the same medium;
The wave changes its speed when entering and then moving through (propagates in) a different medium;
All these above answers are correct.
A mechanical wave is an oscillation ( periodic
