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
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.
Is light a transverse or longitudinal wave?
Light is transverse in nature.
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 the stadium wave at right a transverse or longitudinal wave?
Its a transverse wave.
What is the difference transverse waves and longitudinal?
The vibration of the Longitudinal wave is parallel to the wave direction and the vibration is perpendicular to the direction in the transverse wave.
Is longitudinal a sound wave?
A sound wave is indeed a longitudinal wave as opposed to a transverse wave
What is difference between longitudinal and transverse waves?
The vibration of the Longitudinal wave is parallel to the wave direction and the vibration is perpendicular to the direction in the transverse wave.
Must a wave be transverse or longitudinal explain?
No, a wave can be either transverse or longitudinal. Transverse waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, like light waves, while longitudinal waves oscillate parallel to the direction of wave propagation, like sound waves. Both types of waves can carry energy and information.
Is a sound wave a transverse wave or longitudinal wave?
Sound waves are longitudinal.
Is a radio wave longitudinal?
No, radio waves are transverse waves, meaning the oscillation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal waves have oscillations parallel to the direction of wave motion.
