As a wave travels through a medium, it displaces the particle perpendicular to the motion of the wave. We can conclude that this is a
a.longitudinal wave because of the direction that the wave travels.
b.transverse wave because of the direction in which the particles are displaced.
c.longitudinal wave because the wave is traveling through a medium displacing particles.
d.transverse because of the direction that the wave is traveling.

As a wave travels through a medium, it displaces the particles

perpendicular to the motion of the wave.


We call this a transverse wave because of the direction in which

the particles are displaced. (choice-b)

Answer:

b- transverse wave because of the direction in which the particles are displaced
