Question

how does particle movement in a transverse wave compare to that in a longitudinal wave?
transverse waves have perpendicular movement, while longitudinal waves have parallel movement.
in both waves, particles move parallel to the waves direction.
transverse wa have parallel movement, while longitudinal waves have perpendicular movement.
in both waves, particles move in a circular pattern.

Explanation:

Transverse waves have particle movement perpendicular to the wave's direction. Longitudinal waves have particle movement parallel to the wave's direction.

Answer:

A. Transverse waves have perpendicular movement, while longitudinal waves have parallel movement.
