Waves

  1. There are two main types of waves: Longitudinal and Transverse

    • Transverse
      • These are Waves which the displacment is at right angles to the direction of the motion
        • Examples of transverse waves are water waves,light,xrays and sway
    • Longitudinal
      • These are Waves in which the displacement is along the direction of which the wave is travelling.
  2. Sound and Vaccums

    • There is no sound in a vaccum because there is no particles to pass on a vibrations.
