Transverse waves are waves in which the direction of the wave is perpendicular to thedirection of the vibration.
e.g Light, water, and any waves in the electromagnetic spectrum
Longitudinal waves are waves in which the direction of the wave is parallel to the direction of the vibration.
e.g Sound (includes ultrasound or infrasound)
Wave equation: V = fλ
In the videos below, the speed of wave is constant.
Hence frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength. [f increases, λ decreases, and vice versa]
