A wave in which the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of wave motion?
That is called a Longitudinal wave
In this type of wave particles of the medium vibrate perpendicularly to the direction of the wave?
tranverse
What are the motion of the particles like inside the medium of a transverse wave?
in a transverse wave the individual particles of the medium
In a transverse wave that travels through a medium the molecules of the medium vibrate in which direction?
The molecules vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation or motion.
Wave motion in which particles vibrate back and forth in the same direction as the wave is called?

tranverse
Wave in which particles in the medium vibrate back and forth along the path that the wave travels?
Longitudinal Wave
Wave in which particles in the medium vibrate back and fourth along the path the wave travels?
Longitudinal wave.
A wave in which the medium vibrates perpendicular to the motion of the wave is called a wave?
false, they vibrate parallel
Wave motion in which particles vibrate back and forth in the same direction as the wave travels?
a compressional wave
