For the same dimensions of a beam, transverse vibrations have a lower frequency than longitudinal frequency.

For the same dimensions of a beam, transverse vibrations have a lower frequency than longitudinal frequency. Correct Answer True

Keeping the dimensions of the testing beam same, it is noted that the natural frequency of vibrations obtained in longitudinal waves is larger than the one obtained in transverse waves.

In the following question, sentences of a paragraph have been jumbled and labelled as A, B, C and D. You are required to rearrange the jumbled sentences of the paragraph and mark your response accordingly by selecting the correct option. A: As the source continues to vibrate the medium, the vibrations propagate away from the source at the speed of sound, thus forming the sound wave. B: The sound source creates vibrations in the surrounding medium.  C: The sound waves are generated by a sound source, such as the vibrating diaphragm of a stereo speaker. D: Sound can propagate through a medium such as air, water, and solids as longitudinal waves and also as a transverse wave in solids.
