In your own words, compare and contrast transverse and longitudinal waves. be sure to include at least one similarity and one difference.

Transverse waves - are moving waves such that the oscillations of the waves are perpendicular to the propagation of the waves.

Longitudinal waves - are waves in which the displacement of the medium is in the same direction or opposite to the propagation of the waves.

One of the similarities is that energy is transferred in both transverse and longitudinal waves.

The difference in transverse and longitudinal waves is that in transverse waves; the displacement of the medium is perpendicular to the propagation of the waves. In longitudinal waves; the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of the waves

seeing the graph would

one person pulls 90n one way and the other has 100n pulling the other way.

so the net force = 90 - 100 = -10n,

or the ans can be 10n if the picture shows -90n and 100n instead.
