Voorbeelden van transverse wave

• Here we are concerned with how the spectrum of the linearized operator depends upon the transverse wave number.

• Since the simplified approach does not include the transverse wave system, it should be used where the diverging wave system is dominating.

• The chain line is for the amplitude of the stable transverse wave response for which the interaction between resonant longitudinal and transverse waves is included.

• The character of field distribution in the cross section for the waveguide is determined by the transverse wave numbers.

• Each of these fields, the electric and the magnetic, exhibits two-dimensional transverse wave behavior, just like the waves on a string.

• A transverse wave is one in which the amplitude vector is orthogonal to k, which is the case for electromagnetic waves in an isotropic medium.

• Light is an example of a transverse wave.

• However, a transverse wave apparently required the propagating medium to behave as a solid, as opposed to a gas or fluid.

• The transverse current, perpendicular to the wave vector, drives the transverse wave.

• However, because of gravity, the water or medium is pulled back down and the repetition of this cycle creates the transverse wave motion.

• The energy associated with the transverse wave system travels at one half the phase velocity or the group velocity of the waves.

• An oscillating string is another example of a transverse wave; a more everyday example would be an audience wave.

• If a transverse wave is moving in the positive "x" -direction, its oscillations are in up and down directions that lie in the "yz" plane.

• The polarization of a transverse wave describes the direction of oscillation in the plane perpendicular to the direction of travel.

• Polarization is an important parameter in areas of science dealing with transverse wave propagation, such as optics, seismology, radio and microwaves.
