Question

how to identify a transverse wave

Answer 1

Answer:

Transverse waves are always characterized by particle motion being perpendicular to wave motion. A longitudinal wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves. ... This type of wave is a longitudinal wave.

Answer 2
