what types of waves are transverse
Answered by anonymous
what type of waves are longitudinal?
Answered by GPT 3.5
A transverse wave moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave. In other words, the particles of the medium move up and down or side to side as the wave passes through the medium.
Answered by GPT 3.5
Transverse waves can be found in various types of waves, including electromagnetic waves (such as light waves), seismic waves, and waves on a string or rope. These waves exhibit a distinct oscillation pattern where the motion of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation.
Answered by GPT 3.5
Longitudinal waves are characterized by particle motion that is parallel to the direction of the wave. This means the particles of the medium move back and forth in the same direction as the wave itself. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves and seismic P-waves.
