Trough waves, commonly referred to in the context of oceanography, are typically seen in the form of waves that have their lowest points (troughs) at the bottom of the wave cycle. Examples include long-period swells generated by distant storms, which can create deep troughs in the ocean surface. In a more general physics context, trough waves can also refer to any wave pattern where the lowest points are emphasized, such as in specific types of sound waves or light waves exhibiting destructive interference.
What else can I help you with?
How do we know the outer core is liquid?
seismic waves travel slowly trough
What are the properties of surface waves?
The basic properties of transverse waves are: Amplitude Time Period Frequency Phase Wavelength Crest Trough
What are 2 examples of electromagnetic waves?
Transverse and Compressional electromagetic waves Another opinion: No electromagnetic waves are compressional waves. They're all transverse. I think what the question was looking for is: -- Heat and visible light -- Radio waves and X-rays -- Ultraviolet and gamma rays etc.
What are some examples of sound waves?

Most waves that travel through a substance are what kind of waves?
Most waves that travel through a substance are mechanical waves. These waves require a medium (such as water, air, or solids) to propagate. Sound waves, seismic waves, and ocean waves are examples of mechanical waves.
what is at the bottom of a waves?
Trough
What 2 ways do waves interact with each other?
Waves can interfere constructively, where crest aligns with crest or trough aligns with trough, resulting in an amplified wave. Waves can also interfere destructively, where crest aligns with trough, leading to cancellation of the waves.
When particles move forward at the crest and backward at the trough what type of wave is formed?
A transverse wave is formed when particles move forward at the crest and backward at the trough. In a transverse wave, the particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Examples of transverse waves include electromagnetic waves and waves on a string.
What is a trough and a crest?
it has to do with waves. trough- is the bottom of the wave crest- is the top of the wave
What is the horizontal distance between crest or trough of two successive waves?
The horizontal distance between the crest or trough of two successive waves is called the wavelength. It is the distance between two corresponding points on a wave, such as from crest to crest or trough to trough.
What letter is labeling the waves trough?
The letter "B" is typically used to label the trough of a wave.
What is the structure of a transverse wave?
A transverse wave is characterized by oscillations perpendicular to the direction of wave travel. It has crests and troughs, with the amplitude representing the distance from the equilibrium position to the crest or trough. Examples of transverse waves include light waves and electromagnetic waves.
What is a trough in waves?
It is the Lowest point in a wave the upper point is the crest the bottom point is the trough H
What is the hollow between waves in the sea called?
trough
What can sound waves not travel trough?
A perfect vacuum
What type of interference occurs when waves meet crest to crest or trough to trough?
Constructive interference occurs when waves meet crest to crest or trough to trough, resulting in a stronger wave that is the sum of the individual waves.
What word is there that starts with W that has to do with earthquakes?
wavelength - distance between waves (eg crest to crest or trough to trough)
