What is the back and forth up and down motion of a wave?
it's called frequency. it can go up and down or back and forth
What is a quick back and forth motion called?
Vibrations
How are sea waves form?
Waves are formed by the earth's gravity and the moon's gravitational pull. It make the back and forth motion with the water, thus forming waves.
Is a transverse wave an example of an longitudinal wave?
No, they are different types of wave. Transverse waves vibrate across the direction of motion, like the waves you get when you shake a rope. Longitudinal waves vibrate back and forth along the direction of motion like a sound wave.
Do sound sound waves travel up or down and back or forth?
Back and forth in the direction of propagation of the sound waves.
These waves cause back and forth motion?
The type of seismic waves that cause back and forth motions are P waves. P waves cause particles in material to vibrate back and forth.
What waves can cause back and forth motion?
p A+
What waves cause back and forth motion.?
p A+
What is the back and forth up and down motion of a wave?
it's called frequency. it can go up and down or back and forth
What damage do p waves cause?
P waves typically cause little to no damage when it comes to buildings, because buildings are usually built to withhold a back-and-forth motion (being the most common motion). I hope this helps. :)

What kind of waves cause particles in rocks to move back and forth in the same direction?
Longitudinal or compression waves.

Which earthquake wave travels fastest?
P -waves travel faster because the movement of them, it is a back and forth motion while S- waves are a side to side expending more energy.
Do sound sound waves travel up or down and back or forth?
Back and forth in the direction of propagation of the sound waves.
