Question

the type of wave that maya creates in each rope is called a transverse wave.
a transverse wave travels in a direction that is perpendicular to the direction the particles of the medium move. in other words, the waves travel horizontally from mayas arms along the length of the ropes, while the particles of matter in the ropes move vertically.
complete the sentences.
the transverse wave that maya creates in a rope travels ▼ and the
particles of matter in the rope move ▼. this means that the wave
and the particles of matter move in ▼ directions.

Explanation:

According to the text, it is stated that "the waves travel horizontally from Maya's arms along the length of the ropes, while the particles of matter in the ropes move vertically." So for the first blank, the wave's direction is horizontal. For the second blank, the particle's direction is vertical. And since horizontal and vertical are perpendicular (at right - angles), for the third blank, it is perpendicular.

Answer:

The transverse wave that Maya creates in a rope travels horizontally and the particles of matter in the rope move vertically. This means that the wave and the particles of matter move in perpendicular directions.
