When a transverse wave moves through matter the matter moves in the same direction as the wave true or false?
When a wave propagation takes place in a material medium no particle of the medium moves along with the wave. Only the partciles of the medium make vibrations or oscillations. These are of two type One if the particles vibrate simple harmonically in the direction of propagation then it is said to be LONGITUDINAL If the vibrations are perpendicular to the direction of porpagation then it will be said to be TRANSVERSE
What are the motion of the particles like inside the medium of a transverse wave?
in a transverse wave the individual particles of the medium
Does a transverse wave move a medium?
In this type of wave, the medium moves perpendicularly to the direction of the wave.
How do transverse waves move-?
back and forth
What is a wave called in which the medium vibrates perpendicular to the motion of the wave?
Transverse wave.
In a transverse wave that travels through a mediun the molecules of the medium vibrate?
Up to a crest, then down through a trough, then back. APEX :P

State 2 differences between transverse waves and longitudinal waves?
First and foremost is that rigidity is essential for transverse waves to travel through the medium. But in longitudinal it is not essential. So transverse waves cannot be propagated through gasses. Second, the vibrations of particles of the medium will be perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. Whereas in the case of longitudinal waves, the vibrations are in the same direction as that of the wave propagation.

What is a wave transfer?
It is not "transfer". it has to be " Transverse" wave. When the particles of the medium does vibrations simple harmonically perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave then it is said to be transverse wave. Even electromagnetic wave too is a transverse wave as its electric and magnetic omponents are normal to the direction of propagation.
Does matter in the medium moves perpendicular to a transverse wave?
A wave where the medium moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave is called a transverse wave. Its highest point is called the crest.
Does a transverse wave move a medium?
In this type of wave, the medium moves perpendicularly to the direction of the wave.
How do transverse waves move-?
back and forth
A transverse wave cause its medium to move in what direction?
Perpendicular to the direction the wave travels.
What is a wave called in which the medium vibrates perpendicular to the motion of the wave?
Transverse wave.
In what type of waves do particles in the medium vibrate perpendicularly to the direction in which the waves are traveling?
transverse waves.
For which type of wave does the medium vibrate perpendicular to the motion of the wave?
transverse
