Mechanical waves can be classified based on their propagation medium, direction of particle oscillation, and nature of disturbance.

• Based on propagation medium: mechanical waves can be classified as either transverse waves or longitudinal waves.

• Transverse waves: particles in the medium oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (e.g. electromagnetic waves).

• Longitudinal waves: particles in the medium oscillate parallel to the direction of wave propagation (e.g...read more

The heat capacity of a polytropic process with PV^2= constant can be calculated using the formula Cp = (1 + 1/n) * R, where n is the polytropic index and R is the gas constant.

• Heat capacity (Cp) = (1 + 1/n) * R

• Polytropic index (n) can be determined from the given equation PV^2 = constant

• Gas constant (R) is a known constant value

• Calculate Cp using the formula with the determined values of n and R
