Question

A duck is floating on a pond when a wave passes through. Which is not true of the interaction between the wave and the duck?

The wave transfers energy to the duck.
The wave causes the duck to move along with it.
The wave does work on the duck.
The wave causes the duck to move up and down.

Answer 1

The wave causes the duck to move along with it. This is not necessarily true as the duck may not be able to move in the same direction and speed as the wave due to other forces acting on it, such as gravity, buoyancy, and surface tension.
