What do you call waves in a rope?
rope waves.
How transverse waves can be produced on a rope?
Lay a long length of rope on the ground, straight out. Grab one end and jerk it upward and downward. A wave will pass down towards the other end of the rope, this is a transverse wave.
Why waves in a rope are called transverse wave?
ts of the rope vibrate movements to the direction in which the waves travel
Waves on a rope and light waves are two examples of longitudinal waves?
false

What are seismic waves that move rocks up and down like a wave in a rope?
S waves
What do you call waves in a rope?
rope waves.
How does transverse waves move?
When you make a wave on a rope, the wave moves from one end of the rope to the other. But the rope itself moves up and down or from side to side, at right angles to the direction in which the wave travels. Waves that move the medium at right angles to the direction in which the waves travel are called transverse waves. Transverse means "across". As a transverse wave moves, the particles of the medium move across, or at right angle to, the direction of the wave.

Waves on a rope and light waves are two examples of longitudinal waves.?
true
Are waves on a rope and light waves are two examples of longitudinal waves.?
false
Are waves on a rope and light waves are two examples of longitudinal waves?
No, neither are examples of longitudinal waves. Sound waves and compression waves in a spring are longitudinal waves. With light and rope waves, the axis of movement is 90 degrees to the direction of propagation, they are both transverse waves.
Are waves in a rope called transverse waves because the segments of the rope vibrate in the direction in which the waves travel?
No. "Transverse" means that the vibration is at right angles to the direction in which the wave advances.
