Answer 1

1. The best classification of a wave in which the particles of the medium move in the same direction as the wave is a Longitudinal wave.

2. The statement that BEST compares an ultraviolet wave to a microwave is: An ultraviolet wave has more energy than a microwave because it has a shorter wavelength and a higher frequency.

This is true because, in the electromagnetic spectrum, ultraviolet waves have shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies than microwaves, which means they carry more energy.
