Awave is produced in a slinky as shown
direction of wave travel
what is the direction of the slinky wire at point p as the waves travel through this point?
horizontal?
vertical?
/
\

At point P the direction is left to right Horizontal

Explanation:

The transverse waves posses the distinguishing properties which makes the particles or molecules of the medium to move in perpendicular direction to that of the wave propagation direction. As there is a right angle between the motion of the particles and that of the propagation of the waves inside the medium in which it travels. So, at the point "P" which is under consideration will have the horizontal direction, as the waves moves across it. As the movement of the wire will be more horizontally or we can simply say that it will be side ways.

answer is slate

hope this
