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

perpendicular to the wave motion.

in the opposite direction of the wave motion.

Why does a music studio likely use digital technology for recording rather than analog technology?

Digital technology can store information more reliably than analog technology.

Digital technology has been used longer than analog technology.

Digital technology produces more background noise in recordings than analog technology.

Digital technology cannot be changed while analog technology can easily be modified.

Which of these statements best describes how digital data compares to analog data?

Digital data can be stored for a longer period of time than analog can.

Digital data takes more space to store than analog does.

Digital data records more unwanted background noise than analog does.

Digital data transmits signals more slowly than analog can.

Both analog and digital waves can experience noise as they travel. Noise is any unwanted signal that distorts or reshapes the original wave. The diagram below illustrates how the resulting waves might appear. The example above suggests that...

noise is less of a problem for digital waves than for analog waves.

digital waves cannot have noise or other distortions removed from them.

there is no clear advantage to transmitting digital waves over analog waves.

analog waves do not experience as much noise as digital waves.

It refracts all the colors except red

Why does the arrow appear to change direction as water is poured into the glass? You can try this experiment at home.

Light waves are bending as they pass through the air, glass, and water.

Light waves are bouncing as they pass through air, glass and water.

Light waves are traveling in a straight line as they pass through air, glass, and water.

Light waves are not passing through the air, glass, and water.
