All the particles are vibrating in the same phase.

(A) In a plane progressive mechanical wave,particles of the medium perform $S.H.M.$ with the same amplitude but different phases depending on their position.Statement $A$ is incorrect because particles at different positions along the direction of wave propagation vibrate with different phases.Statements $B$,$C$,and $D$ are standard properties of a plane progressive wave and are therefore correct.
