(physics) Any wave in which the direction of disturbance is perpendicular to the direction of travel
Illustration of the electric (red) and magnetic (blue) fields along a ray in a simple light wave. For any plane perpendicular to the ray, each field has always the same value at all points of the plane.
(physics) Any wave in which the direction of disturbance is perpendicular to the direction of travel
Propagation of a transverse spherical wave in a 2d grid (empirical model)
(physics) Any wave in which the direction of disturbance is perpendicular to the direction of travel
Circular polarization mechanically generated on a rubber thread, converted to linear polarization by a mechanical polarizing filter.
