Download Solution PDFA transverse wave travels along the x-axis. The particles of the medium must move-
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFCONCEPT:
- Longitudinal Waves: Those waves whose direction of propagation and direction of disturbance is always parallel.
- These waves produced in a medium that can sustain compressive strain.
- Example Sound Wave
- Transverse Waves: Those waves whose direction of propagation and direction of disturbance is always perpendicular.
- These waves produced in a medium that can sustain shearing strain.
- Example: Electromagnetic Waves.
EXPLANATION:
- Wave is transverse in nature and travelling along the x-axis means the particle is oscillating in its perpendicular plane that is a y-z plane.
- So option 3 is correct.
Mistake Points
- Particle always oscillates in a plane.
- So, always try to find the perpendicular plane instead of the perpendicular axis.
