Question
what kind of wave is this? transverse longitudinal
Brief Explanations
In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave's propagation. The image of the coiled - spring shows compression and rarefaction along the length of the spring, which is characteristic of a longitudinal wave. In a transverse wave, particles move perpendicular to the wave's direction.
