Transverse waves.
Seismic waves that move rocks up and down like a wave in a rope are called vertical or P-waves. These waves cause particles to vibrate in the direction of wave propagation, creating compression and expansion as the wave passes through the material. P-waves are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through both solids and liquids.
Transverse waves cause matter in the medium to move up and down or back and forth at right angles to the direction of the wave's propagation. Examples of transverse waves include electromagnetic waves like light and water waves in the ocean.
Waves move in a repeating pattern of oscillation, where they transport energy without moving matter. This oscillation can be seen in various types of waves, such as water waves, sound waves, and electromagnetic waves. The wave pattern is characterized by crests (peaks) and troughs (valleys) as the wave travels through a medium.
Waves can move in any direction - back and forth, up and down, or side to side. The direction of wave motion depends on the type of wave and the medium it is traveling through.
Transverse
Waves that move up and down are called transverse waves. In transverse waves, the wave energy travels perpendicular to the direction of the particle displacement. Examples include light waves and water waves.
False
false antinodes
Transverse waves move up and down or perpendicular to the direction of the wave's movement. Examples include light waves, water waves, and electromagnetic waves.
The points on the medium that move up and down with the largest amplitudes in a standing wave are called antinodes. These are the points of maximum constructive interference between the incoming and reflected waves.
A wave that causes particles to move up and down is called a transverse wave. In this type of wave, the motion of the particles is perpendicular to the direction of the wave itself. Examples include light waves and water waves.
The particles of the medium move up and down as the wave passes. The crests and troughs of the waves move with the wave.
Seismic waves called "S waves" shake the ground up and down as they move through the Earth. S waves are a type of shear wave that travels through the Earth's interior and are responsible for the side-to-side or up-and-down motion felt during an earthquake.
Seismic waves that move rocks up and down like a wave in a rope are called vertical or P-waves. These waves cause particles to vibrate in the direction of wave propagation, creating compression and expansion as the wave passes through the material. P-waves are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through both solids and liquids.
The points on the medium that move up and down with the largest amplitude in standing waves are called antinodes. Antinodes are locations of maximum constructive interference where the individual amplitudes of the two interfering waves add up.
