What matter moves at right angels to direction wave travels?

In a transverse wave, the particles in the medium move perpendicular (at right angles) to the direction of the wave's travel. Examples of transverse waves include electromagnetic waves like light and radio waves.


How does the medium vibrate in a transverse wave with twice the force of the energy provided at right angles to the direction the wave travels parallel to the direction the wave travels with half the?

If the medium vibrates in a transverse wave with twice the force at right angles to the direction the wave travels, it means the amplitude of the wave is doubled in that direction. If the wave also travels parallel to the direction it moves with half the energy, it means that the wave carries less energy forward because some of the energy is directed towards vibrating the medium at right angles.


In which wave does matter move forward and backwards in the same direction the wave travels?

In a longitudinal wave, matter moves forward and backward in the same direction that the wave travels. This is due to the parallel displacement of particles in the direction of wave propagation. Sound waves are a common example of longitudinal waves.


What type wave matter moves at right angles to the direction of the wave?

Water moves up and down as the wave moves horizontally. The website below has examples of transverse waves.


When a transverse wave travels through a medium which way does matter in the medium move?

In a transverse wave, matter in the medium moves perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. This means that the particles of the medium move side to side or up and down as the wave passes through.

How does transverse waves move?

When you make a wave on a rope, the wave moves from one end of the rope to the other. But the rope itself moves up and down or from side to side, at right angles to the direction in which the wave travels. Waves that move the medium at right angles to the direction in which the waves travel are called transverse waves. Transverse means "across". As a transverse wave moves, the particles of the medium move across, or at right angle to, the direction of the wave.
