Unit 4 - Energy Learning Target 4.2 – Be able to compare & contrast Transferse Waves versus Longitudinal (compression) Waves

Transverse Waves A transverse wave is one in which the oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of travel. Notice, in the image below, the wave is moving left-to-right but it is oscillating in the up-and-down direction.

Another Example of a Transverse Wave

Another Example of a Transverse Wave

Longitudinal (compression) Waves Longitudinal waves produce oscillations parallel to the direction of travel. (longitudinal waves are also called compression waves)

Another Example of a Longitudinal Wave The wave in the image below has oscillations parallel to the direction of travel. The wave is moving left-to-right. The wave is also compressing and relaxing left-to-right
