Q. Differentiate between Transverse and Longitudinal Waves.

S.No	Transverse Waves	Longitudinal Waves
1	Those waves in which particles of the medium vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of waves are called transverse waves.	Those waves in which particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of propagation of waves are called longitudinal waves.
2	These waves consists of Crests (Upper/Positive Part of wave where displacement of medium is maximum) and Troughs(Lower/Negative part of wave where displacement of medium is minimum)	These waves consists of Compressions(region where particles are closer than average) and Rarefactions(region where particles are father apart than average)
3	For Example: Water waves, waves in rope, light waves.	For Example: Sound waves, Waves in Spring, Seismic waves.
