A wave travels through a medium and displaces the particles perpendicular to the direction in which the wave is traveling. This type of wave is a: transverse wave because of the direction that the particles are being displaced as the wave travels

longitudinal wave because of the way the particles are displaced as the wave passes through

longitudinal wave because it moves forward through a medium causing the particles to vibrate

transverse wave because it is not traveling in a vacuum and the particles are moving

Ascientist notices that an oil slick floating on water when viewed from above has many different colors reflecting off the surface, making it look rainbow-like (an effect known as iridescence). she aims a spectrometer at a particular spot and measures the wavelength to be 750 nm (in air). the index of refraction of water is 1.3
