Question

1. what direction do transverse waves move in?

○ perpendicular to the force that created them
○ in the opposite direction of the force that created them
○ in the same direction as the force that created them.
○ skew of the force that created them

Explanation:

Transverse waves are defined as waves where the particle displacement is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. This is a fundamental property of transverse waves. For example, in a wave on a string (a common example of a transverse wave), when you pluck the string (apply a force), the wave moves along the string while the displacement of the string particles is up - and - down (perpendicular to the direction of wave movement).

Answer:

Perpendicular to the force that created them
