Why does a seaweed not move in the same direction as waves?
Seaweed will move in the direction of the sea current. It's not able to move on its own, but can develop moving skills to get around.
What type of waves cause particles to move back and forth in the same direction the waves are moving?
transverse waves do not carry anything with them, and the particled are not moving exept up-and-down or side-to-side mimicking the wave pattern.
What type of waves move across the direction of travel?
Transverse waves will move across the direction of travel.
How do l waves move?
The particle motion of a Love wave forms a horizontal circle or ellipse moving in the direction of propagation.
What directions do waves move in?
Towards the shore.
What is the difference between compression and rarefaction?
compression waves the moving particles move backwards and forward in the same direction as the energy transfer.
Kind of wave that causes particles in rocks to move back and forth in the same direction that the wave is traveling?
Primary waves
What wave causes particles in matter to move back and forth along the same direction in which the waves travel?
A Compressional wave.
Waves move in the direction of the?
wind
What is the difference between how transverse waves and longitudinal waves move particles?
In transverse waves, particles move in a parallel & perpendicular direction relative to the direction of energy transport.
Do transverse waves move perpendicular or parallel to the direction of the wave?
They move perpendicular to the direction they transfer
These move through earth by causing particles to move at right angles to the waves direction?
S Waves
