What else can I help you with?
Are compressions and rarefactions characteristics of transverse waves?
No, compressions and rarefactions are characteristics of longitudinal waves, not transverse waves. In transverse waves, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation.
What are two things all waves have in common?
they all have amplitudes and they all have frequencies.
What are the 5 main characteristics of all waves?
The five main characteristics of waves are amplitude (height of wave), frequency (number of waves per second), wavelength (distance between wave crests), speed (how fast the wave travels), and direction of propagation (the way the wave moves).
How are transverse longitudinal and surface waves similar?
Transverse, longitudinal, and surface waves are all types of mechanical waves that transport energy through a medium. They all have characteristics such as amplitude, frequency, wavelength, and speed. These waves can be described by their propagation direction relative to the direction of the wave motion.
Do all objects reflect light waves?
No. A black hole does not reflect light waves. But that is assuming you regard a black hole as an "object."
Are compressions and rarefactions characteristics of transverse waves?
No, compressions and rarefactions are characteristics of longitudinal waves, not transverse waves. In transverse waves, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation.
All waves can be described by three closely linked characteristics?
Amplitude, wavelength, and frequency
What is wave nature?
nature of waves is the characteristics of a waves
What are two things all waves have in common?
they all have amplitudes and they all have frequencies.
What are characteristics of water waves make them transverse waves?
There are many forms of water waves. The characteristics of water waves that are transverse waves are that the particles of the wave move perpendicular to the direction the wave moves.
What is the formula to find the speed?
There are a few different formulas, depending on what measurements you know. For mechanical waves . . . the mechanical characteristics of the medium. For electromagnetic waves . . . the electrical characteristics of the medium. For all waves . . . the product of (wavelength) multiplied by (frequency).
What are the 5 main characteristics of all waves?
The five main characteristics of waves are amplitude (height of wave), frequency (number of waves per second), wavelength (distance between wave crests), speed (how fast the wave travels), and direction of propagation (the way the wave moves).
What are the best characteristics of tsunamis?
waves
How are transverse longitudinal and surface waves similar?
Transverse, longitudinal, and surface waves are all types of mechanical waves that transport energy through a medium. They all have characteristics such as amplitude, frequency, wavelength, and speed. These waves can be described by their propagation direction relative to the direction of the wave motion.
What evidence is there that electromagnetic waves have the characteristics of waves?
For example, by observing things like interference, which are typical for waves.
Do all objects reflect light waves?
No. A black hole does not reflect light waves. But that is assuming you regard a black hole as an "object."
What is the characteristics of medium?
waves,atoms, and joints
