Question
Give two examples each of longitudinal waves and transverse waves.

Answer

Longitudinal waves:
  1. The waves which travel along a spring when it is pushed and pulled at one end.
  2. Sound waves in air.
Transverse waves:
  1. The waves produced by moving one end of a long spring up and down rapidly, while other end is fixed.
  2. The water waves or ripples formed on the surface of water in a pond.
