There are three general types of mechanical waves: – Transverse – particle motion is perpendicular to wave motion. – Longitudinal – particle motion is in the same direction as wave motion. – Combined – sea waves.

What kind of wave is an mechanical wave?
A mechanical wave requires a medium to transfer the energy it carries, unlike EMR waves. There are several types of mechanical waves, most of them being found in an earthquake. Mechanical waves are all longitudinal waves.
What are three types of progressive wave?
Longitudinal Wave,Transverse Wave,Orbital Wave
Who were the three scientists that discovered the wave mechanical model?
Erwin Schrodinger
Is a tidal wave a mechanical wave?
A tidal wave is a water wave so it is a mechanical wave.
What are all mechanical waves?
There are two types of waves, mechanical and non-mechanical waves. A mechanical wave needs some sort of medium, like an earthquake to move the water.
Was the Kashmir earthquake caused by a mechanical wave or electromagnetic wave?
A mechanical wave.
Is an ocean wave mechanical wave?
Yes, an ocean wave is a mechanical wave, since the water is the medium of the wave.
is An electromagnetic wave is a mechanical wave/true or false?
True, because mechanical waves require a medium for propagation.
Which of the following is not a mechanical wave' a transverse a longitudinal or a electromagnetic?
An electromagnetic wave is not a mechanical wave.
Is a mechanical wave a transverse wave?
A mechanical wave is any wave pattern that results from one or many forces. A mechanical wave can be a transverse wave, such as seen on a violin string, or a longditudinal wave, such as sound waves.
What is the three types of wave forms in trigger circuit of oscilloscope?
The three waveforms in the trigger circuit of an oscilloscope are the sine wave, square wave and saw tooth wave.
Is an ultrasound wave mechanical vibrating energy?
ultrasound wave is a wave due to mechanical vibration,
