The correct statement is:
a transverse wave, where particles move perpendicular to the wave.
In a transverse wave, such as when moving a rope up and down, the motion of the particles is perpendicular to the direction in which the wave travels.
Students model a wave by moving the end of a rope up and down. Which statement best explains the type of wave created by this motion?(1 point)
Responses
