Onda transversal

The video tutorial explains the nature of oscillations and differentiates between transverse and longitudinal waves. Transverse waves, such as electromagnetic waves including visible light, have oscillations perpendicular to the direction of movement. In contrast, longitudinal waves, like sound waves, have vibrations parallel to the direction of propagation.

Explain the concept of oscillations in the context of wave movement.

Describe the characteristics of electromagnetic waves.

What are transverse waves and how do they differ from longitudinal waves?

How do the vibrations in longitudinal waves differ from those in transverse waves?

What is meant by the direction of propagation in waves?
