When a wave vibrates, it causes particles in the medium through which it is traveling to oscillate back and forth in the direction of the wave's propagation. This movement transfers energy from one point to another without permanently displacing the particles. The frequency of the vibration determines the pitch of the wave, while the amplitude determines the wave's intensity.
What else can I help you with?
What wave vibrates parallel to the wave motion?
A transverse wave vibrates perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.
What kind of wave does a tuning fork create when it vibrates?
A tuning fork creates a sound wave when it vibrates.
What type of wave moves through matter and vibrates your eardrums?
The type of wave that moves through matter and vibrates your eardrums is called a sound wave.
What is a wave called in which the medium vibrates perpendicular to the motion of the wave?
A wave where the medium vibrates perpendicular to the motion of the wave is called a transverse wave. Examples include light waves and electromagnetic waves.
What type of wave vibrates in the same direction that the wave travels?
A longitudinal wave vibrates in the same direction that the wave travels. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves and seismic waves.

A longitudinal wave vibrates in the same direction that the wave travels. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves and seismic waves.
The medium vibrates perpendicular to the direction the wave travels in a?
Transverse Wave
What cause a wave to form?
When matter vibrates it sends out a sound wave.
Which characteristic of a wave describes the greatest distance away vibrates from a resting position?
The amplitude of a wave is the characteristic that describes the greatest distance that a wave vibrates from its resting position. It represents the intensity or strength of the wave.
Which process results in an electromagnetic wave?
An electric change vibrates and a magnetic field vibrates in response.
What is the greatest distance a wave vibrates from a resting position?
The greatest distance a wave vibrates from a resting position is known as the amplitude of the wave. It represents the maximum displacement of particles in the medium from their equilibrium position as the wave passes through.
A wave in which the medium vibrates perpendicular to the motion of the wave is called a wave?
false, they vibrate parallel
In what direction does the medium vibrate?
The medium vibrates perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation.
