vibrate
C
expand
D
compress
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Mechanical waves form when a source of energy causes a medium to vibrate. Moving objects have energy, which they can transfer to a medium to produce waves. A motorboat’s propeller can transfer energy to water. As a result, the particles that make up the water start to vibrate.

Detailed explanation-2: -In transverse waves, particles of the medium vibrate to and from in a direction perpendicular to the direction of energy transport. 4. A transverse wave is traveling through a medium.
