===Meaning===
A '''mechanical wave''' is [[wave]] that passes through [[matter]].
===About Mechanical Waves===
: '''Mechanical waves''' [[Energy Transfer|transmit energy]] by and [[information]] from one place to another without the net transfer of [[oscillationmass]] of . That means the [[particle]]sdon't travel to the destination of the [[wave]]. Instead they end up back where they started after the [[wave]] has passed through.
