Wave motion ppt
There are two types of waves: transverse waves, where particles of the medium vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation, and longitudinal waves, where particles vibrate parallel to the direction of propagation. Longitudinal waves involve compression and rarefaction of the medium, while transverse waves involve movement perpendicular to the wave direction.
