Longitude and transverse waves
Flashcards do conjunto (5)
- 1Longitude wavesOscillation back and forth along the direction of propagation
- 2TransverseOscillation at right angles to the direction of propagation-up and down or side to side
- 3In longitudinal waves the oscillations causeCompressions(regions with particles closer together) and rarefactions(particles further apart) that moves with the wave pattern
- 4Transverse waves in water or in stretched strings can be visibleas travelling ripples or as standing waves
- 5Detectors for transverse waves must be aligned atRight-angles to the direction of propagation e.g. TVs and radio antennas
