How-To Themes. Opt for a how-to theme if you want your students to research key steps in a process, according to the Common Core State Standards Initiative. Tell your class that the topics must relate to social studies, science, history, literature, technology or business.
In which kind of wave do the particles of the medium move at right angles to the direction in which the wave is traveling. Transverse. In what way do the particles in the wave move when surface waves combine the properties of transverse and longitudinal waves.
A longitudinal wave is a wave where the particles in the medium move parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave. When we studied transverse waves we looked at two different motions: the motion of the particles of the medium and the motion of the wave itself. We will do the same for longitudinal waves.
