Transverse waves vibrate particles perpendicular to the wave direction and Longitudinal waves vibrate particles parallel to the wave direction
If the particles of the material medium vibrated in a perpendicular direction to the direction of propagation of the wave then it is said to be TRANSVERSE If the particles vibrate parallel to the direction of propagation then it will be longitudinal
If you hold the ends of a slinky toy so that it is stretched out horizontally you can demonstrate excitations of both transverse and longitudinal waves. If you move one end of the slinky up and down in a periodic fashion you will see transverse waves. If you move one end of the slinky in and out along the horizontal direction that it is stretched out in, you will excite longitudinal waves.
A transverse wave causes particles in matter to move at right angles to the direction in which the wave travels. A compressional wave causes particles in matter to move back and forth alog the same direction in which the wave is traveling.
longitudinal waves travel in the direction parallel to the Surface, which are P waves, and transverse waves travel in the direction perpendicular to the surface, which causes destructive earthquakes. Which are S waves.
In a transverse wave, the direction of the propagation of the wave is perpendicular tothe direction of the vibration of the source whereas in a longitudinal wave, they both are parallel to each other. A longitudinal wave requires a medium to propagate but a transverse wave requires no medium to travel. Sound is a longitudinal wave and all EM radiation are transverse waves.
what is difference between lateral and longitudinal?
If the particles of the material medium vibrated in a perpendicular direction to the direction of propagation of the wave then it is said to be TRANSVERSE If the particles vibrate parallel to the direction of propagation then it will be longitudinal
The vibration of the Longitudinal wave is parallel to the wave direction and the vibration is perpendicular to the direction in the transverse wave.
If the primary stiffners of the hull is in transverse direction, that design is called transverse framing. and If the primary stiffners of the hull is in longitudinal direction, that is called longitudinally framed ship
First and foremost is that rigidity is essential for transverse waves to travel through the medium. But in longitudinal it is not essential. So transverse waves cannot be propagated through gasses. Second, the vibrations of particles of the medium will be perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. Whereas in the case of longitudinal waves, the vibrations are in the same direction as that of the wave propagation.
The vibration of the Longitudinal wave is parallel to the wave direction and the vibration is perpendicular to the direction in the transverse wave.
sound are longitudinal waves while water waves are transverse waves
If you hold the ends of a slinky toy so that it is stretched out horizontally you can demonstrate excitations of both transverse and longitudinal waves. If you move one end of the slinky up and down in a periodic fashion you will see transverse waves. If you move one end of the slinky in and out along the horizontal direction that it is stretched out in, you will excite longitudinal waves.
Axial load (or thrust load) is a force applied parallel to the longitudinal axis, whereas, a radial load is a force applied transverse to this longitudinal axis.
TB ulcer is transverse while typhoid is longitudinal
A transverse wave causes particles in matter to move at right angles to the direction in which the wave travels. A compressional wave causes particles in matter to move back and forth alog the same direction in which the wave is traveling.
longitudinal waves travel in the direction parallel to the Surface, which are P waves, and transverse waves travel in the direction perpendicular to the surface, which causes destructive earthquakes. Which are S waves.
