The fastest among them is a quasi-longitudinal wave. The slowest of them is a thermal wave. The remaining two are called quasi-transverse waves. The prefix 'quasi' refers to their polarizations being nearly, but
The compression of the wave at any point along the string can be described by a scalar quantity. Particle motion is parallel to the direction of travel of the wave. 2. Transverse waves (vector). The motion of particles in a transverse wave is perpendicular to the direction of travel of ...

As I'm sure many of you know, waves can be either transverse or longitudinal. Transverse waves involve vibrations that are perpendicular to the propagation (direction of motion) of the wave, and longitudinal waves' vibrations are parallel to the wave's propagation. Electromagnetic waves such as...
Longitudinal waves are defined by the motion of the wave occurring parallel to the direction the wave travels. This is the opposite of a transverse wave that oscillates perpendicular to the wave's direction of travel.Answer and Explanation: ...
Longitudinal waves, also calledpressure waves and compressional waves, oscillate parallel to the direction of the motion of the wave. If a wave travels from left to right, the displacement of the medium is also left to right but oscillating in place by compressing and stretching. ...
Transverse waves oscillate perpendicular to energy transfer, while longitudinal waves oscillate parallel. Both types of waves oscillate in the same direction as energy transfer. Longitudinal waves do not involve oscillations. 2. Multiple Choice 30 sec 1 pt Which of the following is NOT a characteris...
The type of mechanical wave in which the oscillation of the constituents of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave; such a wave is called a transverse wave. Transverse waves can be seen in the ripples observed on the surface of the water or the vibrations ...
Longitudinal wave: particle displacement is (parallel or perpendicular) to wave velocity. Transverse wave: particle displacement is (parallel or perpendic Standing waves can result from ___ waves. a) Longitudinal b) Both longitudinal and transverse c) Neither longitudinal nor transverse d) Transverse ...
All combinations of Cross-Rolling (perpendicular to extrusion axis) and Straight-Rolling (parallel to extrusion axis) resulted in an increase in Reduction of Area in both the Longitudinal and Transverse directions at both 20° and 300°C compared to the EXT (0% rolling) starting plate. 2. In...
