In a transverse wave in what direction are the vibration relative to the direction of wave travel?
In a transverse wave the particle displacement is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (at right angles). In a longitudinal wave the particle displacement is parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
What measures amount of displacement in a transverse wave?
the amplitude
What is maximum displacement of the wave from equilibrium called?
The term for maximum displacement is the amplitude of the wave.
What defines the amplitude of a transverse wave?
The one-sided displacement perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
Are microwave wave longitudinal or transverse?
Microwaves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are transverse waves in that the displacement is perpendicular to the direction of travel.

What defines the amplitude of a transverse wave?
The one-sided displacement perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
Wave maximum displacement from the rest position?
The correct term from the maximum displacement from the rest position in a wave is the Amplitude (A).
What is a transversal wave?
A transverse wave is a wave that the displacement of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. Examples of transverse waves are a ripple in a pond and a wave on a string. Transverse waves may occur on a wave, throughout a solid and on the surface of a wave. Transverse waves cannot propagate in a gas or a liquid because there is no mechanism for driving motion perpendicular to the propagation of the wave.
Are microwave wave longitudinal or transverse?
Microwaves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are transverse waves in that the displacement is perpendicular to the direction of travel.
The point of maximum displacement in a wave is?
amplitude.
The maximum height of a wave is what?
Amplitude, which is defined as the maximum displacement of a wave from it's centre of oscillation.
Tranverse wave is a wave that moves perpendicular?
A transverse wave is a moving wave in which the displacement of the medium carrying the wave is perpendicular to the direction of the wave propogation. An example of a transverse wave is a string oscillating up and down.
What is the maximum displacement of a particle of a wave called?
amplitude
