What type of mechanical wave do particles in the medium move perpendicular to the direction of wave motion?
Longitudinal wave
In what type of wave do the particles in the medium experience forces parallel to the wave's direction?
The type of wave in which the particles in the medium experience forces parallel to the wave's direction is the longitudinal wave. It is a mechanical wave that travels through a series of compressions and rarefactions.
What is a mechanical wave and a medium?
A mechanical wave is a wave the transfers energy through a medium If anyone know what a mechanical waves medium is add an answer to this question
What type of wave is a mechanical wave?
A mechanical wave is a wave that uses a medium to travel. Without a medium, it would not be able to go anywhere.
A wave that requires a medium to travel?
A mechanical wave such as a sound wave requires a medium to travel through.

What type of mechanical wave do particles in the medium move back and forth in the direction of wave motion?
Transverse wave longitudinal wave-hint back and forth
If the wave requires a medium then the wave is classified as a?
If the wave requires a medium then it is a mechanical wave.
What wave requires a medium?
Waves that require a medium are called mechanical waves
What type of wave is a mechanical wave?
A mechanical wave is a wave that uses a medium to travel. Without a medium, it would not be able to go anywhere.
A wave that requires a medium to travel?
A mechanical wave such as a sound wave requires a medium to travel through.
Is an ocean wave mechanical wave?
Yes, an ocean wave is a mechanical wave, since the water is the medium of the wave.
Why does a mechanical wave need a medium?
medium is the matter a wave trvels through
