Transverse waves are types of mechanical waves where particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation. An example of a transverse wave is a wave on a string, where the particles of the string move up and down while the wave moves horizontally. Electromagnetic waves are also considered transverse waves.
What else can I help you with?
Are microwaves longitudinal or transeverse?
Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic wave that is transverse in nature. This means that the oscillations of electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
What type of waves are sound waves, and are they transverse waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, not transverse waves.
Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
What do you call waves that require a medium A electromagnetic waves or B mechanical waves?
Mechanical waves, shock waves, etc.
What are examples of longitudinal waves?
Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves, seismic waves, and sound waves in solids (such as ultrasound waves). These waves propagate by compressing and rarefying the medium in the direction of wave motion.
Are microwaves longitudinal or transeverse?
Microwaves are a type of electromagnetic wave that is transverse in nature. This means that the oscillations of electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
What are the 3 types of waves?
P-waves (Primary Waves) -- Body WaveS-waves (Secondary Waves) -- Body WaveSurface Waves (Rayleigh and Love)The 3 types of seismic waves are P waves, S waves and surface waves.
What type of waves are sound waves, and are they transverse waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, not transverse waves.
