In your own words, compare and contrast transverse and longitudinal waves. be sure to include at least one similarity and one difference.

Transverse waves - are moving waves such that the oscillations of the waves are perpendicular to the propagation of the waves.

Longitudinal waves - are waves in which the displacement of the medium is in the same direction or opposite to the propagation of the waves.

One of the similarities is that energy is transferred in both transverse and longitudinal waves.

The difference in transverse and longitudinal waves is that in transverse waves; the displacement of the medium is perpendicular to the propagation of the waves. In longitudinal waves; the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of the waves

i guess that visual aids present persuasive examples to what you are presenting, some factors would be theme (does it fit with the color, information, what you are presenting), size (can you see it, is it a big enough span of data/information), and overall look of the visual aid.

hope this : )
