Answer:

Explanation:

a transverse wave is a moving wave whose oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of the wave.

A simple example is given by the waves that can be created on a horizontal length of string by anchoring one end and moving the other end up and down.

Another example is the waves that are created on the membrane of a drum. The waves propagate in directions that are parallel to the membrane plane, but the membrane itself gets displaced up and down, perpendicular to that plane.

Light is another example of a transverse wave, where the oscillations are the electric and magnetic fields, which point at right angles to the ideal light rays that describe the direction of propagation.

<span>This question cannot be answered in actual centimeters unless at least one edge has a known length however it can be written as (length^3) or (length cubed). As an example if the sample of gold cube had one length of 3cm then all lengths would be 3cm on the cube.</span>
