Both a transverse wave and a longitudinal wave have
A)amplitude.
B)frequency.
C)wavelength.
D)speed.
E)all of the above

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Both transverse and longitudinal waves have amplitude, frequency, wavelength, and speed. Amplitude refers to the maximum displacement of particles from their equilibrium position, frequency is the number of oscillations or cycles per unit time, wavelength is the distance between two consecutive points in the wave that are in phase, and speed is the rate at which the wave travels through a medium. Therefore, all of the above choices are correct.
