Are tidal waves longitude or transverse?

Tidal waves are longitudinal waves. They move in the direction of the wave energy transfer, which in this case is the direction of the tide's gravitational pull.

Is radio wave longitude or transverse?

A radio wave is an electromagnetic wave. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves.


What type of waves move by compressing and expanding the ground like an accordion?

Seismic waves, specifically compressional or primary waves (P-waves), move by compressing and expanding the ground like an accordion. These waves are generated by earthquakes and travel through the Earth's interior.


What is the wave that is combination of transverse and longitude waves are called?

A wave that is a combination of transverse and longitudinal waves is called a surface wave. Surface waves travel along the boundary between two mediums, exhibiting characteristics of both transverse and longitudinal waves. These waves are commonly seen in earthquakes and ocean waves.


Why are sound waves longitude?

They need not be longitudinal; but in the case of the sound we usually hear (in air) this is due to the fact that air is a gas.


What are 2 examples of longitude waves?

Two examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves and seismic waves. Sound waves travel through a medium by compressing and expanding the material in the same direction as the wave's propagation. Seismic waves are produced by earthquakes and move through the Earth's interior by compressing and expanding the rock particles in the direction of the wave.


What type of seismic wave arrives after an earthquake?

A seismic wave travels through the Earth's layers, after a volcano, explosion, or earthquake. Transverse, compressional, longitude, and shear waves are all types of seismic waves after earthquakes.


What is A wave that is a combination of longitude and transverse wave?

The combination of a transverse waves and a longitudinal waves produce surface waves. The waves found in water are a good example. When a wave moves through the waver, particles travel in clockwise circles, and the radius of the circles decreases as the depth into the water increases.


What type of waves move the particles of the medium parallel to the direction in which the wave are traveling?

Transverse waves move the particles of the medium perpendicular to the direction in which the wave is traveling, not parallel. Longitudinal waves, on the other hand, move the particles of the medium parallel to the direction in which the wave is traveling.
