Check out Tyler Dewitt's Chemistry and Science sessions - Lonitudinal and Transverse Wave Motion Article with sample modelMechanical Waves are waves which propagate through a material medium (solid, liquid, or gas) at a wave speed which depends on the elastic and inertial properties of that medium. There are two basic types of wave motion for mechanical waves: longitudinal waves and transverse waves. The animations below demonstrate both types of wave and illustrate the difference between the motion of the wave and the motion of the particles in the medium through which the wave is travelling

If you are a student, or just interested in physics, my hope is that you will find these videos useful to learn more about physics. You can review demonstrations shown in lecture to look again and more closely. If you are a teacher at a high school or college, you could use these videos to supplement your own demonstration collection. If you are interested in having your institution's demonstration videos included in this collection, please contact me. Matthias Liepe of Cornell University
