Question
differentiating longitudinal and transverse waves
complete the passage to differentiate between longitudinal and transverse waves.
a longitudinal wave is a type of wave that transfers energy to the direction of wave motion. a
transverse wave, on the other hand, is a type of wave that transfers energy to the direction of
wave motion.
Brief Explanations
Longitudinal waves have particle motion parallel to wave direction. Transverse waves have particle motion perpendicular to wave direction.
