Transverse wave animation, longitudinal wave animation. Transverse vs. longitudinal waves.

Part of a playlist on waves, resonance and sound: • Physics I: Waves, Res...
Transverse vs. longitudinal waves: animations and examples.
We show a transverse wave animation and explain the definition of a transverse wave: the direction of oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of wave motion. We give examples of transverse waves: waves on a string and electromagnetic waves are both transverse.
Next, we show a longitudinal wave animation and explain the definition of a longitudinal wave: the direction of oscillation of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave velocity. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves and compression waves on a slinky.

bro cleared our doubt without saying a word 💀

[@divyapadhariya141]

Finally the video that clears my doubt!

[@Fajar765]

Mara bhi

[@maskednoob5885]

Such a simple illustration made me understand this topic way more 🙏

[@0bpen]

longitudinal waves are waves that are parallel from the disturbance. when the particles get closer together (as-in this video, you can see how some parts of the longitudinal waves are close together) we call this compression, while the opposite, where the parts are spread out/stretched is called compression. these waves carry energy (remember, energy is the ability to do work) hence the particles moving, however these particles have a net motion of zero, and therefore is elastic.

It was well illustrated.

Clears my doubt

0:09 help me so much😭😭

[@Fajar765]

Clear mu doubt

[@ohboi206]

Hey but how does in transverse wave and particle transmits the other particle energy if they don't even have any interaction?
In the case of longitudinal waves particles collide with each other and transfer momentum and energy
but how do they do it in transverse?

[@ZaksLab]

particle to particle connections in the material. here's a proper derivation of the 1D wave equation starting from newton's second law: czcams.com/video/-96QqnrytIQ/video.html

🙏👍

[@user-ki6rl5ne4t]

can you tell me type of simulation you use!

[@ZaksLab]

This was done using an open source computer algebra system called wxMaxima -z

[@lakshyasangwan01]

Hey what is the name of white dotted line in transmission waves

[@ZaksLab]

I would normally call that the "equilibrium position", but some math books use the term "midline" for sinusoidal functions. Equilibrium is a good name, because that's where the string would lie at rest if there was no disturbance on the string. z

[@animeaddicteduwu]

@@ZaksLab equilibrium position would be a fair name only in the case of a transverse wave. Rather in the case on longitudnal waves, it is the very line along which SHM is taking place

[@va1bhav_2829]

Sir which animation software

[@ZaksLab]

I actually made this in an arcane open source computer algebra system called wxMaxima. Probably way easier with more modern tools, but inertia is a powerful thing. z

[@technicalcracker2827]

I changed like to 2.1k

[@ZaksLab]

thanks!

[@MAX_TV99]

Impressive but too fast ❤❤

[@ZaksLab]

I know . . . it started as an experiment in TikTok virality, but it's not optimal. -- Zak

[@thedarkness6844]

Its an oscillatory motion not wave ؟؟!!...

[@ZaksLab]

Longitudinal waves are exactly this . . . it's just not what you'd ordinarily picture when someone says "wave". They have all the same mathematical properties of transverse waves, so "wave" is a sensible name. Turning it around, you could also say a transverse wave is an oscillatory motion, it's just that the medium is oscillating perpendicular to the wave velocity.
