A transverse wave would cause the displacement to be perpendicular to the direction. They will also be moving at a constant speed.

In which type of wave is energy transmitted in a definite direction and with definite speed?

A traveling wave is a type of wave in which energy is transmitted in a definite direction and with a definite speed.


What type of wave is energy transmitted in a definite direction and with a definite speed?

This type of wave is called a mechanical wave. It requires a medium (such as water or air) to travel through and can transmit energy in a specific direction at a known speed, such as sound waves or seismic waves.


Can returning radar energy show the direction and speed of a falling raindrop?

yes


How is energy transmitted via electromagnetic waves?

Energy is transmitted via electromagnetic waves through the movement of electric and magnetic fields. These waves travel through space at the speed of light, carrying energy from one place to another without the need for a medium to travel through.


What changes speed and direction depending on the density and material they travel through?

Waves (of energy)


What causes light to change directions?

The change in speed of light changes the direction.


When light is transmitted it can be refracted polarized or?

When light is transmitted, it can be refracted, polarized, or absorbed depending on the medium it is passing through. Refraction occurs when light changes speed as it moves from one medium to another, causing it to change direction. Polarization refers to the orientation of the light waves in relation to the direction of propagation.


What will never speed up an object?

A force that is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the object will never speed it up. This is because the force is unable to transfer any of its energy in the direction of motion.


The kinetic energy of the body has not depend on its direction of motion and why?

The kinetic energy of an object is defined as the energy it possesses due to its motion. It is a scalar quantity that depends only on the mass of the object and its speed, regardless of the direction in which it is moving. This is because kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed of the object, which is a scalar quantity.


What is speed is given direction?

The amount of speed in a given direction is the 'component' of speed in that direction. The total amount of speed AND the direction of the total speed is the 'velocity' of the moving object.


What changes as light moves from one material to the other?

When light moves from one material to another, its speed and direction may change. This change in speed and direction is known as refraction. Additionally, the amount of light that is transmitted, reflected, and absorbed can also change depending on the properties of the two materials.
