As a transverse wave travels through a medium it displaces the particles

a. perpendicular to the motion of the wave

b. vertically along the same plane as the wave

c. parallel to the direction of the wave motion

d. horizontally along the plane that the wave travels

Sawyer is studying diffraction. he draws a diagram of a plane wave to show how light waves travel. which best describes sawyer’s error? the wave fronts should be perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move. the arrow showing the direction of movement of the waves should be pointing to the left. the arrow showing the direction of movement of the waves should be pointing downward. the wave fronts should be both parallel and perpendicular to the direction in which the waves move.

Quantum mechanics applies to subatomic, atomic, nanometer-size, and micrometer-size systems. nanometer, micrometer, and kilometer-size systems. atomic, nanometer-size, and micrometer-size systems. subatomic, atomic, and nanometer-size systems.

Amajor difference radio waves, visible light, and gamma rays is the of the photons, which results in different photon frequencies and wavelengths
