A transverse wave travels perpendicular to the direction in which the individual particle of the medium is vibrating. This means that the wave's energy is transmitted horizontally or vertically, while the particles of the medium move in a different direction.
Energy in a transverse wave travels perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation.
Wave that has vibration in a direction that is perpendicular to the motion creating it
A slinky wave is a transverse wave. Transverse waves are perpendicular to the direction the wave travels, and in the case of a slinky wave, the coils move back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the wave's propagation.
This describes a transverse wave. In a transverse wave, the particles of the medium vibrate perpendicular to the direction the wave is moving. Examples include light waves, waves on a string, and electromagnetic waves.
A transverse wave.
Energy in a transverse wave travels perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation.
Up to a crest, then down through a trough, then back. APEX :P

A transverse wave travels in a straight line but wavers up and down. the high point is the crest and the low point is the trough
A transverse wave.
That sounds like the description of a transverse wave.
In a transverse wave, the particles vibrate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. This means that the particles move up and down or side to side as the wave travels forward.
longitudinal waves
