What else can I help you with?
Give an example of a logitudinal and transverse wave?
An example of a longitudinal wave is a sound wave, where the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave. An example of a transverse wave is a light wave, where the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
A in a transverse wave corresponds to a compression in a longitudinal wave?
In a transverse wave, the crest corresponds to a compression in a longitudinal wave.
Describe two major differences between transverse and longitudinal waves give a practical example of each?
In a transverse wave, the direction of the propagation of the wave is perpendicular tothe direction of the vibration of the source whereas in a longitudinal wave, they both are parallel to each other. A longitudinal wave requires a medium to propagate but a transverse wave requires no medium to travel. Sound is a longitudinal wave and all EM radiation are transverse waves.
Is sound a transverse wave?
No, sound is a longitudinal wave, not a transverse wave.
Is a sound wave transverse in nature?
No, a sound wave is a longitudinal wave, not transverse.

Is an earthquake a transverse wave or a longitudinal wave?
Earthquakes generate both transverse and longitudinal waves.
Is a radio a transverse wave or a longitudinal wave?
its a transverse wave

Is sound a transverse wave?
No, sound is a longitudinal wave, not a transverse wave.
Is light a transverse or longitudinal wave?
Light is transverse in nature.
Is the stadium wave at right a transverse or longitudinal wave?
Its a transverse wave.
Is a sound wave transverse in nature?
No, a sound wave is a longitudinal wave, not transverse.
What parts of the transverse wave are analogous to the parts of a longitudinal wave?
In a transverse wave, the crest of the wave corresponds to the compression of a longitudinal wave, while the trough of the transverse wave corresponds to the rarefaction of a longitudinal wave. Both waves exhibit oscillation or vibration, but the direction in which the particles move is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation in a transverse wave, while it is parallel in a longitudinal wave.
Is a sound wave a transverse wave?
Yes, a sound wave is a longitudinal wave, not a transverse wave.
What is an example of transverse waves and longitudinal waves?
An example of a transverse wave is light, where the oscillations occur perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. An example of a longitudinal wave is sound, where the oscillations are in the same direction as the wave propagation, causing compression and rarefaction of the medium.
