Similar:
-
For transverse waves, the waves move in perpendicular direction to the source of vibration.
For longitudinal waves, the waves move in parallel direction to the source of vibration .
They are similar in the sense that energy is transferred in the form of waves.
-
Difference:
-
Transverse Waves: Displacement of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.
Longitudinal Waves: Displacement of the medium is parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.
