Question

When the particles of a medium move with simple harmonic motion, this means the wave is a ___ sinusoidal wave transverse wave harmonic wave sound wave standing wav?

Answer 1

P waves push and pull in the same direction as the wave, and S waves move up and down.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

When the particles of a medium move with simple harmonic motion, this means the wave is a sinusoidal wave. The sinusoidal wave is a curve that describes a smooth repetitive oscillation
Any wave shape can be described as a sum of sine waves
