Longitudinal wave・Transverse wave
This is called a compression wave or longitudinal wave a wave traveling
in the same direction as the vibration direction of the medium.I also referred
to as the transverse wave traveling in a direction perpendicular to the
vibration direction of the medium. For example, there is a sound wave or
P-wave seismic case of longitudinal wave, there is a wave or S-wave in
the case of earthquake shear wave.
Element of vibration
There is a speed frequency and period of waves to vibration.Period is the
time medium to vibrate once.Frequency is the number of vibrations and medium
wave source is repeated per second, it is used as Hz to represent Hertz,
the symbol on the unit of frequency.The speed of the wave represents the
distance the waves move through in one second.
Wave that can be the vibration of the wave source
If you are oscillating wave source is continuous, dense part of the mountains
and valleys, and sparse can.My name is continuous wave wave like this.I
called the pulse wave in the case of wave intermittent. Wave that such
a possible there is a spring.
