How does a compressional wave moves?
for compressional waves, think of a spring. It moves by compressing and contracting. For sinusoidal waves, think of waves on the beach.
How you can explain that nodal points are located one-half of the wavelength of the interfering waves from one to another?
The zeros (nodal points) of a sinusoidal wave occur every half-wavelength of the sinusoidal wave.
Are television waves transverse waves?
Electromagnetic waves have a transverse component.
Is noise the combining of two or more waves results?
Noise itself, as sound, is a wave. Like any wave except a pure sinusoidal one, a wave can itself be reproduced as the combination of other waves. This process is called the principle of superposition. So certainly then, noise can be produced as the sum of other waves, two, three or an infinite number of them. However, if by "noise" you mean those random-like scratchy amorphous sounds made by TV sets not tuned to any channel, those waves must be made by the addition of many waves of different frequencies, not just a couple of sinusoidal ones.
What is it when two waves that meet and make bigger or smaller waves?
This is called interference. Positive interference makes bigger waves, Negative interference makes smaller waves.

What do waves move through?
Different types of waves move in different patterns. Ocean waves move in a circular pattern while sound waves move in a sinusoidal pattern.
How you can explain that nodal points are located one-half of the wavelength of the interfering waves from one to another?
The zeros (nodal points) of a sinusoidal wave occur every half-wavelength of the sinusoidal wave.
Are television waves transverse waves?
Electromagnetic waves have a transverse component.
Electricity with a frequency measured in cycles per second or Hertz and consists of alternating sinusoidal waves is known as?
ac
What does la phase mean?
"La phase" means "the phase" in French. It is used to describe a specific stage or period of time in a process or project.
What are types of waves?
there are 7 types of waves : 1.sinusoidal waves 2.Plane waves 3.Standing waves 4.Mechanical waves 5.Electromagnetic waves 6.Quantum mechanical waves 7.Gravitational waves
What are the differences between sinusoidal oscillators and non sinusoidal oscillators?
sinusoidal vs non sinusoidal
Can sound waves be a different shape than curvy?
Yes, they can. Normal sound waves (the curvy kind) are called sinusoidal, because when graphed, they use equations with the trigonometry function sine. However, sound waves can also be triangular (pointed instead of normal curves), square (flattening at the top or bottom of the curve), or "sawblade" which is shaped like a saw blade. You can listen to examples of each of these on the wikipedia page for "non-sinusoidal sound waves" which I don't have the link for not but its pretty easy to find.
How do you add and subtract two sinusoidal ac waveforms graphically and by phasor diagram?
I already have the graph drawn on graph paper with 2 waves on , my phase shift is 1.5 and 180degrees. Anyone know how to add and subtract the sinusoidal ac waveforms on the graph, and by phasor diagram?
What are the various type of interrupts?
There are three types of interrupts.... 1. internal Interrupts 2. External Interrupts 3. Software Interrupts... read more
Can transverse waves resemble a sinusoidal wave?
If you graph the displacement (or some other physical change) over time, you'll quite often get a sine wave.
