No, a ripple in water is a surface water wave, which is a combination of longitudinal and transverse wave motion. The particles of water move in circular orbits as the wave passes through, rather than simply vibrating up and down or side to side.
When you throw a stone into a lake, you create a circular wave known as a ripple. This ripple expands outward in all directions from the point where the stone entered the water.
Transverse wave.
A water wave is a combination of both transverse and longitudinal motion. The water particles move in a circular motion as the wave passes, which means they move both up and down (transverse) and back and forth (longitudinal) in the direction of the wave.
An example of a transverse wave is a water wave. As the wave travels horizontally, the particles of water move up and down perpendicularly to the wave's direction of travel.
A water wave is a mechanical wave that travels on the surface of a body of water, transferring energy through the oscillation of particles in the water. It is a transverse wave, with the particles of water moving perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
False. A water ripple is a type of surface wave, which is a combination of both transverse and longitudinal wave characteristics. The motion of the individual water molecules in a ripple is primarily in a circular fashion, causing the wave to have both vertical and horizontal motion components.

A transverse wave is a wave that the displacement of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. Examples of transverse waves are a ripple in a pond and a wave on a string. Transverse waves may occur on a wave, throughout a solid and on the surface of a wave. Transverse waves cannot propagate in a gas or a liquid because there is no mechanism for driving motion perpendicular to the propagation of the wave.
no
Transverse wave.
No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.
one ripple will increase in size as it goes to shore all it takes is one ripple in the wave

A water wave is a mechanical wave that travels on the surface of a body of water, transferring energy through the oscillation of particles in the water. It is a transverse wave, with the particles of water moving perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
It depends on the type of transverse wave. A transverse water wave travels through water. A transverse wave on a rope travels along the rope. A transverse electromagnetic wave, however, needs no medium. It can propagate through a vacuum.
A sea wave is a form of transverse wave because the particles in the water move perpendicular to the direction the wave is traveling. This causes the water to move up and down as the wave passes through.
