Transverse and longitudinal . One type acts perpendicular to the surface and the other parallel to the surface

1.Transverse Wave :- the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction that the pulse moves 2.longitudinal :- In this case, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction that the pulse moves

Physics Subject Expert

Sound waves are longitudinal waves and not a transverse wave. It needs a material medium, elastic in nature, to travel. Depends on the frequency of sound wave it is arranged in three types. Infra sonic, audible and ultra sonic Audible sound is between 20 Hz and 20000 Hz.

Sound wave (mechanical wave) are two types. i) Longitudinal wave. Generally propagate in gases. The wave moves in the direction of the to and fro motion of the vibrating particles. The particles vibrate about their mean position but sound energy moves from one end to the other. ii) Transverse wave....

Sound wave (mechanical wave) are two types. i) Longitudinal wave. Generally propagate in gases. The wave moves in the direction of the to and fro motion of the vibrating particles. The particles vibrate about their mean position but sound energy moves from one end to the other. ii) Transverse wave. Propagates in solid and liquid. The wave moves in the perpendicular direction of the to and fro motion of the vibrating particles about their mean position. read less

Sound waves need a medium (or material) to travel through. These kinds of vibrational waves have another name: longitudinal waves. In fact, there are two main types of waves: transverse and longitudinal. ... Transverse waves on the other hand is where the vibration is at 90 degrees to the motion of the...

Waves are of two types - transverse and longitudinal. In transverse waves, oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the waves. But in longitudinal waves, oscillations are parallel to the direction of propagation of wave. Sound waves propagate as lonitudinal waves in air. But...

Waves are of two types - transverse and longitudinal. In transverse waves, oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the waves. But in longitudinal waves, oscillations are parallel to the direction of propagation of wave. Sound waves propagate as lonitudinal waves in air. But in solids, it can propagate as transverse waves also. But the question here is not clear. As I understand, it is TYPES of SOUND waves. An immdeiate answer can be w.r.to the audible frequencies. If that is the reference, there are three types: Infrasonic sound (frequency less than audible range), audible sound and ultrasonic soud waves (frequency greater than audible range). read less

May be I did not understand the question properly. Waves are of two types according to their way of propagation. Transverse and longitudinal of which sound wave is longitudinal because the sound wave propagates perpendicularly to the motion of the vibrating particles of the medium through which it pr...
