A large waveapproaches the buoy . Howwill the buoy move as the wave goes by?The buoy would move up and down as the wave goes by .2.The two images show side views of ocean waves. Howare the two sets of wavesdif ferent?The first picture shows a wave that is muchhigher than the second picture but the secondpicture is spread out more.Gizmo W arm-upOcean swells are an example ofwaves. In theW avesGizmo, you will observe wavemotion on a model of a spring. The hand can move thespring up and down or back andforth.T o begin, check that theT ype of waveisT ransverse,Amplitudeis 20.0 cm,Frequencyis 0.75 Hz,T ensionis 3.0 N, andDensityis 1.0 kg/m. (Note: In this Gizmo,density refers to thelinear mass density, or massper unit length. It is measured inunits of kilograms per meter .)1.ClickPlay( ). How would you describe the motionof atransverse wave?The transverse wave is moving up and down.ClickPause(
