Transverse waves are perpendicular to wave motion.
Sound is a longitudinal wave, as is any other mechanical wave. Light is a transversal wave, as all other Elektromagnetic waves.
Sound waves, being longitudinal in nature, travels faster in liquids and solids.
They are very small, hence the use of 'micro'
transversal contract
Sound waves (in gas, liquid and sometimes in solid) are longitudinal, not transversal. They cannot be polarised. Sound waves (sometimes in solid) are always "polarised" as the medium must move in a single plane perpendicular to the direction of travel.
Lots of things are true about transverse waves. Feel free to ask more specific questions.
speed: 5.5 km/second (fastest) arrival: first damage: felt as a jolt, little damage medium: travels through solids, liquids and gases movement: push and pull these are some basic facts on p-waves/primary waves
transversal creates pairs of
radio waves can range from the size of a football feild to the size of a football! its a true fact i have always found pretty cool.
they are waveeey =)
A transversal is a straight line and so it has no circumference.
What is a angle on the opposite side of the transversal
