What else can I help you with?
Wave motion perpendicular to the direction that the wave is moving is?
a transverse wave
A wave moving in water that is deeper than half its wavelength is called what?
A deep-water wave.
What is the distance between to point of the crest of a wave it is called what?
In a wave, it is called the wave length.
What is the opposite of a longitudinal wave?
Longitudinal waves consist particles in a medium (ex of a medium= air) vibrate back and forth in a parallel direction to the direction of the wave is traveling. Example of a longitudinal wave are sound waves. Boom! Opposite of longitudinal waves would be a transverse wave where instead of particles moving in a parallel direction, transverse waves vibrate in a medium, side by side perpendicular to the direction the wave travels to. Example of a transverse wave is a light wave. Hope this helped =]
Explain the movement of the water molecules in waves?
In a transverse wave, a molecule/particle will move up and down, with double the amplitude of the wave. In a longitudinal wave, the molecule/particle will move side to side, equal to the wavelength (?) of the wave
What would be the undisturbed position from a wave?
The undisturbed position of a wave is its equilibrium position when there are no disturbances acting on it. It is the position the wave would take if there were no interfering forces or influences.
What is the rest position in a wave?
The position where a wave would be if there was no movement.
What does the strength of the wave depend on?
One factor of course would be how fast the wave is moving.
What is the measure of a wave moving up and down?
The measure of a wave moving up and down is its amplitude, which represents the maximum displacement of the wave from its rest position. It is typically measured in units such as meters or centimeters. A larger amplitude corresponds to a more energetic or intense wave.
Is stationary wave is wave?
A standing wave is also known as a stationary wave. It is a wave that remains in a constant position. This phenomenon can occur because the medium is moving in the opposite direction to the wave, or it can arise in a stationary medium as a result of interference between two waves traveling in opposite directions.
What does the Strength of a wave depend on?
One factor of course would be how fast the wave is moving.
What is a seismic wave that causes particules of rock to vibrate in the same direction which the wave is moving?
That would be a P-wave or Primary wave which is a longitudinal seismic wave.
What part of the wave is the amplitude?
Amplitude is the amount of deviation of a wave from the mean position , measured in Y axis when the sound waves are moving along the X axis.
Where is rest position in a wave?
The rest position in a wave is the position where the particles of the medium are when they are not vibrating. It is the equilibrium position that the particles return to when there is no disturbance. In a transverse wave, the rest position is the position of the particles when the wave is not passing through.
What is equilibrium position in sound waves?
Equilibrium position of A wave: "When wave is in rest position its called equilibrium position of a wave" Definition:- A wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium from one location to another location. \ Example: Consider a slinky wave as an example of a wave. When the slinky is stretched from end to end and is held at rest, it assumes a natural position known as the equilibrium or rest position. The coils of the slinky naturally assume this position, spaced equally far apart. To introduce a wave into the slinky, the first particle is displaced or moved from its equilibrium or rest position. The particle might be moved upwards or downwards, forwards or backwards; but once moved, it is returned to its original equilibrium or rest position. The act of moving the first coil of the slinky in a given direction and then returning it to its equilibrium position creates a disturbance in the slinky. We can then observe this disturbance moving through the slinky from one end to the other. If the first coil of the slinky is given a single back-and-forth vibration, then we call the observed motion of the disturbance through the slinky a slinky pulse. A pulse is a single disturbance moving through a medium from one location to another location. However, if the first coil of the slinky is continuously and periodically vibrated in a back-and-forth manner, we would observe a repeating disturbance moving within the slinky that endures over some prolonged period of time. The repeating and periodic disturbance that moves through a medium from one location to another is referred to as a wave.
If a wave is moving at a constant speed and the wavelength is doubled what will happen to the frequency?
IF a wave moving at a constant speed were to have it's wavelength doubled (Wavelength x 2), then the frequency of the wave would be half of what it originally was (Frequency / 2).
What wave is produced when a wave train moving in one direction meets an identical wave train moving in the opposite direction?
a dildo wave
