Yes, longitudinal waves can be created in a rope by moving one end of the rope back and forth. As the end moves, it creates compressions and rarefactions along the length of the rope, propagating a longitudinal wave. This type of wave can also be seen in sound waves, where the particles vibrate back and forth in the direction of the wave travel.
Actually, waves on a rope are an example of transverse waves, not longitudinal waves. Light waves, on the other hand, are an example of electromagnetic waves, which are also transverse waves. Longitudinal waves involve particle displacement parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
No, neither are examples of longitudinal waves. Sound waves and compression waves in a spring are longitudinal waves. With light and rope waves, the axis of movement is 90 degrees to the direction of propagation, they are both transverse waves.
false
This statement is incorrect. Waves on a rope are transverse waves because the particles of the medium (the rope) vibrate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Light waves, on the other hand, are electromagnetic waves that are classified as transverse waves because the electric and magnetic fields oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
the answer is longitudinal wavethe above answer would be incorrect. The correct answer is transverse wave.

-- If you tie the viola to the end of a rope, then wiggle the viola and send wavesdown the rope to the other end, those are transverse waves.-- If you pluck or bow the viola strings, then the strings themselves vibrate withtransverse waves.-- However, the sound waves that proceed from the viola to the ear of the delightedconcertgoer are longitudinal ones.
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.

Longitudinal waves travel on a string!
sound are longitudinal waves while water waves are transverse waves
No Sound waves are longitudinal. Being longitudinal they cannot be POLARISED.

Transverse waves are the waves produced by moving a rope up and down. These are the types of waves seen in the ocean and in electromagnetic radiation (EM has two sets of waves perpendicular to one another and 90 degrees out of phase, for the electric and magnetic fields). Longitudinal waves are different...they are compression waves seen in sound.
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
