Explain the Rectilinear Propagation of Light ?

Answer Posted / shruti

As light isn't made of matter ( we can't touch it ! ) it would be unsuitable to say light moves: in order to describe its  travel through space we can say it " propagates ".
We can also use the term " propagation " for sounds and waves because there's no motion of matter in these cases.
