Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. In a transverse wave, particles of the medium move perpendicular to the wave motion. In a longitudinal wave, particles in the medium move parallel to the wave motion. These are fundamental characteristics of wave - particle motion in physics.
  2. For the transverse wave question, the correct description of particle motion is perpendicular to the wave motion. For the longitudinal wave question, the correct description of particle motion is parallel to the wave motion.

Answer:

  1. a. Perpendicular
  2. b. parallel
