This is a simple demonstration of a transverse wave. A transverse wave is a wave whose oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of the wave’s motion. One can use a slinky to show a transverse wave by having one end of the slinky held in place, stretching the slinky, and giving it a quick jerk to send a pulse. This motion can be repeated at a steady rate to show a transverse wave.
