Why aren't sound waves called transverse waves?
Because they are longitudinal waves. The direction of oscillation of the particles is parallel to the direction of propagation of the waves.
In which direction does a nerve impulse usually move?
It's called the ACTION POTENTIAL, or, in the case of a myelinated axon, SALTATORY CONDUCTION.
In which direction does line of latitude run?
Latitudinal lines run East West along the earth's surface. An easy trick to remember is thinking "lat is flat" therefore the lines are flat when you are looking at a globe or 2D map.Latitude lines can also be called "PARALLELS"
What is a bundle of parallel neurons in the central nervous system called?
A bundle of neurons that are parallel are called nerves
What is air moving parallel to the ground called?
Horizontal force is motion parallel to the ground.
When a force moves something parallel to the direction of that force it is called?
Work
What is difference between like and unlike parallel forces?
Forces which are parallel and acting in same direction are called like parallel forces. Forces which are parallel and acting in opposite direction are called unlike parallel forces.
What is the Difference between like and unlike parallel forces?
Forces which are parallel and acting in same direction are called like parallel forces. Forces which are parallel and acting in opposite direction are called unlike parallel forces.

Because they are longitudinal waves. The direction of oscillation of the particles is parallel to the direction of propagation of the waves.
A wave that vibrates in a direction parallel to the direction of the wave itself is called a?
Disturbance in particle motion parallel to the wave velocity is called a longitudinal wave. Disturbance in particle motion perpendicular to the wave velocity is called a transverse wave.
When you dip your hand in cold water you feel it cold. Can you name the mode of heat transfer and its direction?
This type of heat transfer is called conduction. The transfer is from the warm hand to cool water.
How can you calculate parallel force?
Parallel forces are forces acting in parallel lines. If two parallel forces act in same direction, they are called like parallel forces. If two parallel forces act in opposite directions, they are called unlike parallel forces.
What is a Long sand ridge that are oriented nearly parallel to the prevailing wind is called?
A longitudinal dune is a large, elongated dune lying parallel to the prevailing wind direction.
In which direction does a nerve impulse usually move?
It's called the ACTION POTENTIAL, or, in the case of a myelinated axon, SALTATORY CONDUCTION.
What is it when something pushes an pulls in a particular direction?
It is called as a LOAD.
What do you call the parallel lines that circle the globe?
Lines of latitude encircle the Earth in an east-to-west direction, and are used in geography. They are called parallels and are parallel to each other and to the equator.
How do mirrors change the direction of a light beam?
By something called reflection.
