A good example is vibrating guitar strings, as they are transverse, but the waves given off are sound, and sound is longtitude.

The crest of a transverse wave similar to what on a longitudinal wave?
compression
What is the different between transverse wave and longitudinal wave?
The vibration of the Longitudinal wave is parallel to the wave direction and the vibration is perpendicular to the direction in the transverse wave.
A wave in which particles move back and forth at right angles to the direction of travel is called what?
a wave in which matter is moved back and forth in the direction the wave is moving
What wave energy causes matter in the medium to move up and down or back an forth at right angles to the wave?
The answer to your question is a longitudinal wave. The motion of the wave is parallel to the direction of the particles. An example is a sound wave.When particles move perpendicular to the direction of the wave, the wave is called a transverse wave. An example is a water wave.
How does a wave surface form?
This occurs when transverse waves and longitudinal waves combine!
Must a wave be transverse or longitudinal explain?
A wave must be transverse or longitudinal or both.
Is an earthquake a transverse wave or a longitudinal wave?
Earthquakes generate both transverse and longitudinal waves.
Is a radio a transverse wave or a longitudinal wave?
its a transverse wave
Is a radio wave longitudinal?
Radio wave is not a longitudinal wave it is a transverse wave
Is light a transverse or longitudinal wave?
Light is transverse in nature.
Describe two major differences between transverse and longitudinal waves give a practical example of each?
In a transverse wave, the direction of the propagation of the wave is perpendicular tothe direction of the vibration of the source whereas in a longitudinal wave, they both are parallel to each other. A longitudinal wave requires a medium to propagate but a transverse wave requires no medium to travel. Sound is a longitudinal wave and all EM radiation are transverse waves.
Are satellites a Transverse or longitudinal wave?
Transverse :)
Is the stadium wave at right a transverse or longitudinal wave?
Its a transverse wave.
Give an example of a logitudinal and transverse wave?
Sound waves and Primary Earthquake waves are longitudinal.
What is the difference transverse waves and longitudinal?
The vibration of the Longitudinal wave is parallel to the wave direction and the vibration is perpendicular to the direction in the transverse wave.
Who transverse waves are different from longitudinal waves?
A longitudinal wave is a "side-on" waveform. A transverse Wave is a "end-on" waveform.
Is longitudinal a sound wave?
A sound wave is indeed a longitudinal wave as opposed to a transverse wave
