What is difference between sine wave and transverse wave
Answers
A sine wave or sinusoid is a mathematical curve that describes a smooth periodic oscillation. A sine wave is a continuous wave. It is named after the function sine, of which it is the graph. It occurs often in pure and applied mathematics, as well as physics, engineering, signal processing and many other fields. Its most basic form as a function of time (t) is:
{\displaystyle y(t)=A\sin(2\pi ft+\varphi )=A\sin(\omega t+\varphi )} y(t) = A\sin(2 \pi f t + \varphi) = A\sin(\omega t + \varphi)
where:
A = the amplitude, the peak deviation of the function from zero.
f = the ordinary frequency, the number of oscillations (cycles) that occur each second of time.
ω = 2πf, the angular frequency, the rate of change of the function argument in units of radians per second
{\displaystyle \varphi } \varphi = the phase, specifies (in radians) where in its cycle the oscillation is at t = 0.
When {\displaystyle \varphi } \varphi is non-zero, the entire waveform appears to be shifted in time by the amount {\displaystyle \varphi } \varphi /ω seconds. A negative value represents a delay, and a positive value represents an advance.
A transverse wave is a moving wave that consists of oscillations occurring perpendicular (right angled) to the direction of energy transfer (or the propagation of the wave).
If a transverse wave is moving in the positive x-direction, its oscillations are in up and down directions that lie in the y–z plane.
