WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TRANSVERSE WAVE AND LONGITUDANAL WAVE?
Asked by raunaqmessiesengupta | 06 Jun, 2014, 07:27: PM
Expert Answer
Longitudinal waves:
1.The vibration of the particle in the medium is parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.
2.The wave propagates in the form of compressions and rarefractions.
3.Requires a material medium for its propagation.
4.example: Sound waves
Transverse waves:
1.The wave propagates in a direction perpendicular to the direction of vibration of the particle.
2.The wave propagates in the form of crests and troughs.
3.It can travel through vacuum and a material medium.
example: Light waves
