What type of wave is shown above?

Transverse

Longitudinal

1

Which are characteristics of a transverse wave?

The medium is disturbed perpendicular to the direction energy travels.

The waves look like compressions

The waves look like hills and valleys.

The medium moves up and down while the energy moves right to left.
