Question

differentiate between transverse wave and longitudinal wave?

Answer 1

hey! nice question

#Transverse waves create oscillations that are normal to the direction of propagation

#Transverse waves have oscillations in many different directions,

#the longitudinal waves create oscillations that are parallel to the propagation of the wave.

# longitudinal waves have oscillations in only one direction.

hope this helpful to you !

Answer 2

The difference between transverse and longitudinal waves is the direction the medium of the wave moves in relation to the direction of wave propagation. In transverse waves, the medium is displaced perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
