Types of Waves and Their Properties

Transverse Waves Particles vibrate at right angles to the direction the wave is traveling Transverse Waves Particles vibrate at right angles to the direction the wave is traveling The wave (the disturbance) travels this direction But the particles travel back & forth in this direction

Transverse Waves Particles vibrate at right angles to the direction the wave is traveling Transverse Waves Particles vibrate at right angles to the direction the wave is traveling The wave (the disturbance) travels this direction But the particles travel back & forth in this direction

Transverse Wave Example: Seismic Wave – the “S” [secondary] wave

Transverse Wave Example:

Transverse Wave Example: Light – an electromagnetic wave Made of vibrating electrical fields and magnetic fields

Longitudinal Particles vibrate in the same direction as the direction the wave is traveling Longitudinal Particles vibrate in the same direction as the direction the wave is traveling The wave (the disturbance) travels this direction And the particles move back and forth in this direction

Longitudinal Particles vibrate in the same direction as the direction the wave is traveling Longitudinal Particles vibrate in the same direction as the direction the wave is traveling The wave (the disturbance) travels this direction And the particles move back and forth in this direction

Longitudinal Wave example: Seismic “P” (“primary”)-wave

Longitudinal Wave example:

Sound wave 1/Lwave01Applet.html Longitudinal Wave example: Sound wave 1/Lwave01Applet.html

Surface waves The wave (the disturbance) travels this direction... And the particles cycle around in this direction

Surface waves

Surface waves EX: Water waves

Transverse

Longitudinal
