A sine wave or sinusoid, forms an oscillation, or is oscillating in a regular up and down movement.
The measure of a wave moving up and down is its amplitude, which represents the maximum displacement of the wave from its rest position. It is typically measured in units such as meters or centimeters. A larger amplitude corresponds to a more energetic or intense wave.
One complete up and down movement of a wave is called a cycle.
An ocean buoy bobs up and down as a wave passes by because the wave causes the water particles to move in circular orbits. The buoy reacts to these circular motions by moving up and down as the wave passes underneath it.
The type of wave created when shaking a rope up and down is a transverse wave. This means that the wave travels perpendicular to the direction in which the rope is moving.
The motion of a wave involves both forward propagation and up-and-down oscillation. As a wave travels through a medium, it carries energy forward but individual particles in the medium move in a cyclical pattern, moving up and down (or side to side) as the wave passes through.

transverse wave
No. the individual particles are not moving in the right to left direction. rather, they moves up and down. it is the wave that is going right to left.

Water does not move with a wave believe it or not. It moves up and down with the wave but a wave is just energy moving through something.
When you are moving your head up and down it is called duck
A wave that oscillates up and down is called a transverse wave. In a transverse wave, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave. An example of a transverse wave is a wave on a string.
Reciprocation
The wave in a rope is called a "sinusoidal wave." It is a pattern of oscillation or disturbance in which the rope moves up and down in a regular, repeated manner.
