What else can I help you with?
What moves backwards and forwards in sound?
The atoms of the particular medium in which the sound is produced moves backward and forwards in sound.
What is difference between rarer and danser medium?
In denser medium,particles of matter are very close to each other.whereas,in rarer medium,particles of the medium are slightly farther apart.
The disappearance of a wave into a medium?
The disappearance of a wave into a medium is called absorption.
A substance that a wave travels through is called a?
The material through which a wave travels is called a medium.
Which of the following best describes a mechanical wave?
The matter making up the medium does not move along with the wave
What are waves where matter in the medium moves forward and backward in the same direction?
The waves where matter in the medium moves forward and backward in the same direction are called longitudinal waves. In these waves, particles of the medium oscillate parallel to the direction of energy transfer. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves.
What is the matter that waves use to transfer energy?
The matter that waves use to transfer energy is called the medium. The medium actually carries the energy of the wave. Sound is a good example of mechanical energy, and it requires a medium to travel. The energy created at the source is transferred into the medium, and the medium carries it forward in transmission (propagation).
What type of wave is formed when particles move forward at the crest and backward at the trough?
Transverse wave
The matter which you wave travels is called the?
The medium would be a suitable term.
What happens to the matter in a wave as the energy moves?
As the energy of a wave moves through a medium, the matter in the medium vibrates or oscillates in a specific pattern. The matter itself does not physically move along with the wave, but rather it transfers the energy through these vibrations. The energy propagates through the medium by causing neighboring particles to also vibrate, thus transferring the wave energy forward without the physical movement of matter.
Does matter in the medium moves perpendicular to a transverse wave?
A wave where the medium moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave is called a transverse wave. Its highest point is called the crest.
The matter through which waves transfers energy?
The matter through which waves transfer energy is called the medium. Waves can travel through different mediums such as air, water, and solids, and they transfer energy by causing particles in the medium to vibrate.
The matter through which a wave travels is called what?
a medium. but longitudinal waves do not have to travel through a medium. This is why transverse waves cannot vibrate through space.a medium. but longitudinal waves do not have to travel through a medium. This is why transverse waves cannot vibrate through space.
What is it called when a seimic waves bounces backward when it reaches a boundary?
When a seismic wave bounces backward when it reaches a boundary, it is called reflection. This phenomenon occurs when the wave encounters a change in medium or boundary, causing it to change direction and return to its source. Reflection is a key process in seismic imaging and is used to map subsurface structures in geophysics.
The matter through which a wave transfers energy is called what?
Propagation medium? Though a wave doesn't need a medium to travel or transfer energy (sound waves do, but lightwaves don't). People used to think there was an ether in which light moved, but there isn't.
The matter through which a wave travels is called?
Oh, dude, it's like totally called a "medium." Not like the psychic kind, but like the substance that waves move through, you know? So, like, whether it's air for sound waves or water for ocean waves, that's the medium, man. So, yeah, that's the totally legit term for it.
What is the Wave called that requires matter to carry energy?
The wave that requires matter to carry energy is called a mechanical wave. In a mechanical wave, energy is transmitted through a medium such as water, air, or solids by the vibration or oscillation of particles in the medium. Sound waves and seismic waves are examples of mechanical waves.
