Expert Answer
In a transverse wave motion, the particles of the medium through which the wave is travelling, vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.
In the figure, the wave is travelling from left to right. (i.e., horizontally), whereas the particle vibrates simple harmonically in a vertical direction.
The essential conditions required in the medium for their propagation are :
(i) elasticity
(ii) inertia
(iii) absence of frictional resistance.
