NEET2004PhysicsWaves and SoundActual

The waves produced by a motorboat sailing in water are

Options

Atransverse
Blongitudinal
Clongitudinal and transverse
Dstationary.

Correct answer

C. longitudinal and transverse

Step-by-step solution

The motion of the water boat disturbs the surface of water. Bow waves are generated on the surface. These are transverse waves at the surface. Inside the water, the vibrations of the rudder produces longitudinal waves.
