.What is the main difference between a longitudinal wave and a transverse wave? A longitudinal wave travels faster than a transverse wave. A transverse wave always has a larger amplitude than a longitudinal wave. The motion of the medium is parallel to a longitudinal wave and perpendicular to a transverse wave. The frequency is directly proportional to wavelength in a longitudinal wave but inversely proportional in a transverse wave.
Hey @dailaballance! I believe that this is a physics' question. Please post the questions in the appropriate group ;) Here's the link: http://openstudy.com/study#/groups/Physics
The answer is C 100% ! I took Physical Science last year (: if you need help with the unit test lete me know
