If your child says something hateful, then itâs helpful if parents can get to the root of their anger, Kimberly G. says, noting parents have to listen to their children. My girls tell me when I do something they donât like, and sometimes theyâre right about it.
Other examples of transverse waves include light waves and water waves. Both types of seismic wave can be detected near the earthquake centre but only P-waves can be detected on the other side of the Earth. This is because P-waves can travel through solids and liquids whereas S-waves can only travel through solids. This means the liquid part of the core blocks the passage of S-waves.
In transverse waves the vibrations are at right angles to the direction of travel, as seen in the animation below of a wave sent down a piece of string. The hand moves up and down, as does each part of the string.But the wave moves along from left to right.Water waves and s-waves-one type of seismic wave-are also transverse waves.
