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
When a transverse wave travels through a medium which way does matter in the medium move?
When a compression wave travels through a medium, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave. Compression waves are commonly called longitudinal waves.
How does a waves energy move?
Mechanical waves, such as water and sound, convey energy via physical displacement of the medium, which creates and move potential energy along the direction of propagation. Electromagnetic waves convey energy directly in the coupled electric and magnetic wave itself.
What is the distance between from crest to trough in a wave called?
If you mean the distance along the direction of propagation, that's a half-wavelength. If you mean the distance perpendicular to propagation (i.e. the "height" of the wave), it's the amplitude.
What moves in a wave?
The term "forward" is arbitrary. The waves propagate away from the energy source that created them or away from a reflective surface. In mechanical waves (such as ocean waves), the waves move through the medium (water), but the particles in the medium do not travel along with the waves, although they do oscillate in place as the wave passes through the medium.
Do air particles travel with sound sound waves?
since sound needs a medium for its propagation , it requires air particles to travel along with its waves.
How many types of wave are there?

Can the economy affect the future?
The economy affects the presence and therefore dictates the future, along with an immeasurable amount of factors
Do economy culture nature and society include in environment?
Environment refers to any factors along with their interactions that affect an organism. Therefore economy, culture, nature, society are all 'factors' which can and do affect organisms (people for one).

Which of the following best describes the events of excitation in excitation-contraction coupling?
Propagation of the action potential along the sarcolemma
Is light two dimensional?
Actually, it has three dimensions. Two directions along oscillating magnetic and electric field vectors and one direction along the wave propagation.
