What else can I help you with?
Water waves can move a piece of cork floating on top of the water only in a up and down motion?
Yes, water waves typically cause objects floating on the surface to move up and down. This is due to the oscillatory motion of the water particles as the wave passes underneath the object, causing it to bob up and down as the wave crest and trough move past.
What is the force that opposes motion when moving objects over a surface called?
The force that opposes motion when moving objects over a surface is called friction
What is the media motion of a surface wave?
The media motion of a surface wave consists of particles in the medium moving in a circular or elliptical motion. As the wave passes through a medium boundary, the motion of the particles is a combination of both longitudinal and transverse motion. This unique motion causes the surface wave to travel along the boundary of the two mediums.
What are particles of the medium move both parallel and perpendicular to the wave motion?
Surface waves are where particles of the medium move both parallel and perpendicular to wave motion. This movement creates a circular motion pattern. An example of a surface wave is water waves on the surface of a pond.
How do the particles of the surface of the water move when a wave passes by?
As a wave passes by, the particles on the surface of the water move in a circular motion. The particles move in the direction that the wave is traveling causing the water to rise and fall in response to the wave passing by. This circular motion is crucial for transferring energy across the surface of the water.

What describes the motion of the media for a surface wave?
Surface waves involve both longitudinal and transverse motion of the particles in the medium. This means the particles move both up and down, as well as back and forth, in a circular or elliptical motion. The motion of the particles is more complex compared to simple longitudinal or transverse waves.
What is a common unbalanced force acting on objects in motion?
Friction
Wave that moves rock particles in a backward rolling motion and a side-to-side swaying motion?
These are called Surface waves
Particles in a wave move in an elliptical or circular motion?
surface waves
What will a leaf which is floating do when a wave comes?
When a wave comes, the leaf floating on the water's surface will move with the motion of the wave. The leaf will rise and fall along with the water's movement but will remain on the surface due to buoyancy.
