Question

Students model a wave by moving the end of a rope up and down. Which statement best explains the type of wave created by this motion?
a transverse wave, where particles move perpendicular to the wave

a longitudinal wave, where particles move perpendicular to the wave

a longitudinal wave, where particles move in the same direction as the wave

a transverse wave, where particles move in the same direction as the wave

Answer 1

Answer:

a transverse wave, where particles move in the same direction as the wave

Explanation:

longitudinal waves move perpendicular, transverse waves move up and down which is the same direction. hope this helps

Answer 2

The answer is A
Explanation: the transverse wave is a wave in which the disturbance is perpendicular to the direction the wave travels,whereas a longitudinal wave moves in the direction of the disturbance
