State if the motion is transverse, longitudinal or a combination of both. Wave produced in a cylinder containing water by moving its piston back and forth.

State if the motion is transverse, longitudinal or a combination of both. Wave produced by a motorboat sailing in water.

State if the motion is transverse, longitudinal or a combination of both. Ultrasonic waves in air produced by a vibrating quartz crystal.

State if the motion is transverse, longitudinal or a combination of both. Motion of a kink in a long coil spring produced by displacing one end of the spring sideways.

Given below are some eamples of wave motion. State in each case, if the wave motino is transverse, longitudinal or a combination of both? (i) Motion of a kink in a long coil spring produced by displacing one end of spring side ways. (ii) Waves produed in a cylinder containing a liquid by moving its piston back and forth. (iii) Waves produed by a motor boat sailing in water. (iv) Light waves travelling from sun to earth. (v) ultrasonic waves in air produced by a vibrating quartz crystal.

Distinguish between transverse and longitudinal wave motion.

Assertion: Surface waves are neither transverse nor longitudinal. Reason: In surface wave particles undergo circular motion.

Which of the following can produce longitudinal waves as well as transverse waves under different conditions?

Wave Motion: transverse & longitudinal wave | Mechanical & non mechanical wave | String wave equation of wave | Condition for valid wave equation | Sine wave on a string amplitude | Time period | Frequency | Phase difference | Wavelength
