How many types of surface waves are there?

Answer 1

The three basic waveforms are Sine, Triangle and Square waves.

For transmitting, the only one that matters is the Sine wave because it has no harmonics of its own. A "harmonic" is an unwanted emanation running at an exact multiple of the frequency you're trying to use.

Answer 2

An infinite number of waveforms are possible depending on the application. Sine waves are prevalent in many applications, but even a sine wave can vary considerably as noise is imposed on the waveform. Other common waveforms are square waves and triangular shapes waveforms.

Answer 3

Some of the types of waves that physicists study are:

Electromagnetic waves

Sound waves

Water waves

Matter waves

Solitons

Answer 4

2 types, longitudinal and transverse waves

Answer 5

There are three different kinds:

primary , secondary , and surface waves

Answer 6

Millions and millions. Most of them don't even have names.

Answer 7

there are two
