Question

How fast do transverse waves travel?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Draw the required diagram of the transverse wave

1. A transverse wave has oscillations perpendicular to the direction of propagation.
2. The wave oscillates along the $y$-axis and the $z$-axis if the direction of propagation is along the $x$-axis.
3. The formula can be used to determine the transverse wave's speed.

$v=f\lambda$

Here, $v$ is the transverse wave's speed, $f$ is the wave's frequency, and $\lambda$ is the wave's wavelength.
