Which of the following is not a mechanical wave' a transverse a longitudinal or a electromagnetic?
Electromagnetic waves are not mechanical waves, as they do not require a medium (such as air or water) to propagate. Transverse and longitudinal waves, on the other hand, are mechanical waves that require a medium to travel through.
Is transverse a mechanical wave or electromagnetic wave?
Transverse waves can be both mechanical and electromagnetic. In a mechanical transverse wave, the disturbance of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (e.g. waves on a string). In an electromagnetic transverse wave, the oscillations of electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (e.g. light and radio waves).
Is a mechanical wave a transverse wave?
A mechanical wave is any wave pattern that results from one or many forces. A mechanical wave can be a transverse wave, such as seen on a violin string, or a longditudinal wave, such as sound waves.
Is a lightwave a mechanical wave?
No. A light wave is a transverse electromagnetic wave.
Why is a transverse wave called a mechanical wave?
A transverse wave is called a mechanical wave because it requires a medium (such as air, water, or a solid) to propagate. The wave energy is transferred through the medium by causing particles to oscillate perpendicular to the direction of the wave's motion. This mechanical interaction between particles is what characterizes transverse waves.
Can a mechanical or transverse wave be produced by electric charge?
A transverve wave
What are the two kinds of wave?
There are mechanical and electromagnetic waves.
Are transverse and congressional waves a type of mechanical wave?
A transverse wave may, or may not, be a mechanical wave (electromagnetic waves are also transverse).I don't know about congressional waves; you may want to ask a representative of congress in your country.
What is a mechanical wave in which matter moves at a right angle to the wave direction?
A transverse wave is a mechanical wave in which the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation. Examples include light waves and water waves.
What characteristic is used to classify a mechanical wave?
Mechanical waves are classified based on their medium of propagation. They can be further categorized into transverse waves and longitudinal waves based on the direction in which the particles of the medium oscillate relative to the direction of wave propagation.
Is a transverse wave a mechanical wave?
Yes, a transverse wave is a type of mechanical wave. Transverse waves require a medium to propagate, meaning they rely on the vibration of particles in a substance (solid, liquid, or gas) to transmit energy. Examples of transverse waves include light waves and electromagnetic waves.
Which of the following describes light as a wave?
Light is a transverse wave
