Motion is the change in position of an object over time, typically described in terms of distance and direction. Waves are disturbances that transfer energy without transferring matter. They are characterized by oscillations and can travel through various mediums, such as air, water, or even empty space.

Which wave has a particle motion parallel to a wave motion?
Longitudinal waves have a particle motion that is parallel to the wave motion. In these waves, particles oscillate back and forth in the same direction that the wave is traveling. Sound waves are a common example of longitudinal waves.
What type of waves is the motion of the particles perpendicular to the direction the waves are traveling?
Transverse waves have motion of the particles perpendicular to the direction the waves are traveling. This means that the particles move up and down, side to side, or in a circular motion as the wave passes through the medium.
In which type of waves is the motion of the particles perpendicular to the direction that wave is traveling?
Transverse waves have particle motion perpendicular to the direction of wave travel. Examples include light waves, water waves, and seismic S-waves.
What waves occur when the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave?
Transverse waves occur when the motion of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the wave. When the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave, longitudinal waves are formed. In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium move back and forth parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
Which waves causes the medium to vibrate only in a directions parallel to the wave motion?
Transverse waves cause the medium to vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the wave motion. Longitudinal waves, on the other hand, cause the medium to vibrate in a direction parallel to the wave motion.
What type of waves occur when the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave?
Longitudinal waves occur where the motion of the medium is parallel to the waves.
The motion of these waves is similar to that of ocean waves?

What waves occurs when the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the waves?
amplitude Longitudinal waves occurs when the motion of the medium. This is parallel to the direction of the wave.

What is the motion of surface waves?
surface waves are seism c waves that travel along the surface in a side to side, swaying, motion parallel to earth's surface.
What type of waves is the motion of the particles perpendicular to the direction the waves are traveling?
Transverse waves have motion of the particles perpendicular to the direction the waves are traveling. This means that the particles move up and down, side to side, or in a circular motion as the wave passes through the medium.

What are the seismic waves from the focus that are perpendicular to this motion?
secondary waves.......... i think

How are waves set in motion?
By the wind pushing the water creating waves
Can p waves vibrate at 90 degrees to the wave motion?
P-waves, or primary waves, are a type of seismic wave that travel through solids, liquids, and gases. They are longitudinal waves, meaning that the particle motion is parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Therefore, P-waves cannot vibrate at 90 degrees to the wave motion; that characteristic is typical of S-waves (shear waves), which are transverse waves.
