transverse waves?
this is the waves of secondary waves that has perpendicular to the direction of waves
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.
What is a wave in which the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction the wave travels?
Wave that has vibration in a direction that is perpendicular to the motion creating it
In which type of waves is the motion of the particles perpendicular to the direction of the wave is traveling?
transverse waves
Transverse waves vibrate to the direction it travels?
perpendicular to or at right angles to their direction of motion
How are sound waves and electromagnetic waves different from one another?
Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves I.E the direction of movement of each particle in the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the transfer of energy, similar to a water wave. Sound waves are transverse and so the direction of the movement of the particles in the medium is the same direction as the movement of the energy.

Do transverse waves move perpendicular or parallel to the direction of the wave?
They move perpendicular to the direction they transfer
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.
What is the wave motion in which particles vibrate back and forth in the same direction as the wave travels called?
Longitudinal wave. (as opposed to Transverse waves, where the vibrations are perpendicular to the direction of movement.)
What is a wave in which the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction the wave travels?
Wave that has vibration in a direction that is perpendicular to the motion creating it
What are shearing waves that move rocks and other matter in a direction perpendicular to the direction the wave are traveling?
Transverse waves
In which type of waves is the motion of the particles perpendicular to the direction of the wave is traveling?
transverse waves
Transverse waves vibrate to the direction it travels?
perpendicular to or at right angles to their direction of motion
Waves occur when the motion of the medium is at right angles perpendicular to the direction of the wave?
transverse waves
Are light waves longitudinal or tranverse?
light waves are transverse waves in which both electric and magnetic fields are mutually perpendicular to each other and perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation
Shearing seismic waves that move rocks and other matter in a direction perpendicular to the waves are traveling?
Primary waves (p waves)
