What does transverse wave mean

Answers

ansver
Answer from: amarshall90

Transverse wave, motion in which all points on a wave oscillate along paths at right angles to the direction of the wave's advance. Surface ripples on water, seismic S (secondary) waves, and electromagnetic (e.g., radio and light) waves are examples of transverse waves.

Explanation:

Examples of transverse waves include:

ripples on the surface of water.

vibrations in a guitar string.

a Mexican wave in a sports stadium.

electromagnetic waves – eg light waves, microwaves, radio waves.

seismic S-waves.

Arefrigerator uses r-134a as the working fluid and operates on the ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle except for the compression process. the refrigerant enters the evaporator at 120 kpa with a quality of 34 percent and leaves the compressor at 70°c. if the compressor consumes 450 w of power, determine (a) the mass flow rate of the refrigerant, (b) the condenser pressure, and (c) the cop of the refrigerator. (0.00644 kg/s, 800 kpa, 2.03)
