What is the resulting disturbance of a surface wave? a: perpendicular b: opposite c: parallel d: circular

The resulting direction of surface wave is circular nature.

D

Explanation:

The surface waves are defined as the waves which travel over the surface of any medium. One of the best examples of surface waves are the ocean waves.

The ocean waves are the waves created on the surface of ocean water body due to the friction caused by the air molecules in the surrounding on the surface of water layer in ocean.

As the air molecules are present everywhere and the water in ocean moves in longitudinal way, the interaction of air molecules with the water surface can happen in transverse and longitudinal way.

Thus a surface wave moves in both transverse and longitudinal direction leading to a resultant circular motion of the surface waves.
