− | Periodic waves are characterized by crests (highs) and troughs (lows), and may usually be categorized as either longitudinal or transverse. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_wave Transverse waves] are those with vibrations perpendicular to the direction of the propagation of the wave; examples include waves on a string, and electromagnetic waves. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longitudinal_wave Longitudinal waves] are those with vibrations parallel to the direction of the propagation of the wave; examples include most sound waves. | + | Periodic waves are characterized by crests (highs) and troughs (lows), and may usually be categorized as either longitudinal or transverse.

| When an object bobs up and down on a ripple in a pond, it experiences an orbital trajectory because ripples are not simple transverse sinusoidal waves. | | When an object bobs up and down on a ripple in a pond, it experiences an orbital trajectory because ripples are not simple transverse sinusoidal waves. |
