GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -A transverse wave is a wave in which particles of the medium vibrate at right angles, or perpendicular, to the direction that the wave travels.

Detailed explanation-2: -Transverse waves cause the medium to move perpendicular to the direction of the wave. Longitudinal waves cause the medium to move parallel to the direction of the wave.

Detailed explanation-3: -Transverse waves – When the movement of the particles is at right angles or perpendicular to the motion of the energy, then this type of wave is known as a transverse wave. Light is an example of a transverse wave.

Detailed explanation-4: -Transverse waves: Waves in which the medium moves at right angles (perpendicular) to the direction of the wave (looks like a jump rope).

Detailed explanation-5: -transverse wave, motion in which all points on a wave oscillate along paths at right angles to the direction of the wave’s advance. Surface ripples on water, seismic S (secondary) waves, and electromagnetic (e.g., radio and light) waves are examples of transverse waves.
