Unlike a transverse wave, the disturbance in a longitudinal wave is

• in a circular motion.
• parallel to the wave motion.
• perpendicular to the wave motion.
• in the opposite direction of the wave motion

A transverse wave can be created in a Slinky^® by moving it

• side to side.
• in a circular motion.
• together and apart.
• up and down.
