Which type of wave do particles vibrate at right angles to the direction of the wave?

Transverse waves are the type of waves in which particles vibrate at right angles to the direction of the wave's propagation. This can be seen in phenomena such as light waves, water waves, and seismic S waves.


What causes particles in matter to move back and forth at right angles to the directtion in which the wave travels?

Particles in matter move back and forth at right angles to the direction of the wave due to the transverse nature of the wave. This motion is perpendicular to the wave direction and is characteristic of electromagnetic waves such as light. The vibration of particles allows the wave energy to propagate through the material in a transverse direction.


Describes lines that meet at right angles as in a transverse wave?

Lines that meet at right angles in a transverse wave are called perpendicular. In a transverse wave, the direction of propagation of the wave is at a right angle to the direction of oscillation of the wave particles. This pattern creates crests and troughs perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.


What waves particles move perpendicularly to the direction of the wave itself?

Transverse waves are those in which the particles of the medium vibrate perpendicular to the direction of the wave's propagation. This means the displacement of the particles is at right angles to the direction of the wave. Examples of transverse waves include electromagnetic waves (such as light) and waves on a string.
