stationary transverse waves
Yes, longitudinal vibrations can be produced in a string of a sonometer. By plucking or striking the string, sound waves are generated that travel along the length of the string, causing it to vibrate longitudinally. The frequency and amplitude of these vibrations can be controlled to study various properties of waves.
seismic waves
seismic waves
A sonometer is used to measure the frequency of sound waves produced by a vibrating tuning fork or other sound source. It helps in studying the properties of sound and resonance. It is commonly used in physics labs and educational settings to demonstrate concepts related to waveforms and frequencies.
its the c waves
P waves - compress and expand the ground like a Accordion S waves - vibrate from side to side as well as up and down Surface waves - make the ground roll like ocean waves The Earthquake is produced by each of the three types of seismic waves.
Stationary waves are produced in Melde's experiment by fixing one end of a string to a vibrator and the other end to a tension-adjusting device. The vibrator creates waves that travel along the string and are reflected back at the tension-adjusting device. These reflected waves interfere with the incoming waves, creating stationary points of constructive and destructive interference where the waves appear to be standing still.
both transverse n longitudinal
Both types can be produced depending upon the way that the waves are created; their height and their frequency.
Different types of waves are produced in different ways. One thing they all have in common is that they transfer energy; and it takes energy to make them in the first place.
Three main types of seismic waves are produced at the same time in an earthquake: primary (P-waves), secondary (S-waves), and surface waves. P-waves are the fastest and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. S-waves are slower and only travel through solids. Surface waves are the slowest and cause the most destruction.
Stationary transverse waves are produced on strings. This is due to the superimposition of the progressive wave and its reflection at the knife edges.
