Concept explainers
The diagram of a transverse wave and label the crest, trough, wavelength and amplitude also identify the period and frequency for the wave.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The wave in which the particles vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation is known as transverse wave.
The diagram of transverse wave is shown below.
Figure-(1)
In Figure-(1), the diagram of transverse wave is shown and crest, trough, amplitude and wavelength is labeled.
The time period is defined as the interval in which a cycle is completed and the frequency is defined as number of vibrations per second.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the diagram is shown above.
