Thank you We sneak and here's your shmoop deuce You're

00:05

brought to you by wave motion Well there are three

00:08

types of wave motion transverse waves longitudinal waves and those

00:13

sweet dance and wave from those inflatable air guys Yeah

00:17

like those which of the following his best described as

00:20

longitudinal wave motion All right here Potential answers are cripples

00:25

at home streamers slinky doing away All right when we

00:30

think of waves the first thing we think of our

00:32

waves in the ocean right then we think of brain

00:35

waves way then we try to use our brain waves

00:39

to make things will levitate like a darth luke those

00:42

guys and then we get a headache all right but

00:44

first we think of ocean waves the waves that have

00:46

an amplitude perpendicular to the direction of their motion go

00:50

perpendicular rapid and oceans like that Those waves are called

00:53

trans verse waves They're trans longitudinal waves are different See

00:58

the word long in there a longitudinal wave vibrates in

01:02

the same direction of its motion will another way to

01:05

think the longitudinal wave is as a pressure wave Trans

01:08

verse waves transfer energy by displacing the medium they move

01:12

through alright longitudinal waves don't displace matter They compress and

01:17

expand matter as they moved through it like a spring

01:20

or a slinky Anyway it wasn't one of our choices

01:24

yeah and answer c Some other types of longitudinal waves

01:27

are sound waves or seismic pressure waves created by an

01:30

earthquake and the third type of wave I was dancing

01:33

guys outside of the used car dealerships Yeah well scientifically

01:36

speaking those air known as super cool waves and physicists

01:40

have learned a lot from those dancing fools Go guys
