A vertical array of horizontal full-wave dipoles that are driven by transposed two-conductor line and backed with a parasitic reflecting curtain or horizontal dipoles.
If you can visualize whipping a length of rope tied to a fixed spot back and forth, you can then perfectly visualize radio frequency waves. If you whip the rope up and down the wave is vertically polarized. If you whip it back and forth horizontally, it is horizontally polarized. If you use a set of "rabbit ears" (dipole) to transmit a signal and hold it so the antenna points up and down, the radiated waves will be vertically polarized. To receive vertically polarized waves best, you need to use a vertically polarized antenna. The same holds true for horizontally polarized systems. This is a very simple but applicable explanation. There are other kinds of polarization such as "circular" as used in FM broadcasting and space communications. Just remember that the transmitting antenna's design determines the polarization of a radiated wave. See the ARRL Handbook 621.384 in your library for more detail.
If you are looking for the simple answer, you measure its horizontal distance.
As we mentioned earlier, a CRT can be used to graphically and visually plot an electronic signal,such as a sine wave. This is done by using a second set of deflection plates called VERTICAL-DEFLECTION PLATES
A wave length of gamma rays is 10 raised to minus 12. Means 1/1,000,000,000,000 meter. It means, you have 1,000,000,000,000, waves of gamma rays in one meter. Wave length of radio wave is 1000 meters. Speed of both of them same. So roughly, you take the speed of radio wave as straight line, forsimplicity of calculation. And straighten the gamma rays it would be minimum 1,000,000,000,000 times the speed of radio wave. ( Here you have taken length of radio wave 1000 times less, it means only 1 meter to correct the effect of straitening it, to be on safer side.) If you know the amplitude ofelectromagneticwave, you can get the unimaginable figure. In threedimensionalspace, wave may be traveling like spring and not as you draw on paper. Probably magnetic wave travel like coating on insulated wire. Which will be perpendicular to 'electric' wave. In that case, it should bechallenging task formathematiciansto calculate the length of such spiral wave.Probably something iscompressing the gamma rays to very small wave, so that speed of electromagnetic wave be a constant. The photons with maximum energy travel as a gamma rays. Then as gradually energy in photon decreases, it's wave length increases. It is a 'spectrum' and for your convenience that you have given them different names. Like gamma rays, x-rays, ultraviolet rays, light rays, infra-red, microwaves and radio waves etc. So better you wait for the edit of this answer by expert in this subject.
The direction of polarization refers to the orientation of the electric field in an electromagnetic wave. It can be vertical, horizontal, diagonal, circular, or elliptical, depending on how the wave vibrates in relation to its direction of propagation.
1). Reflection of vertically polarized waves is less efficient, so vertical polarization is less susceptible to multipath fading due to ground-based reflection. 2). In order to avoid directional effects due to the radiation pattern of the receiving antenna (losing the mobile signal when the car turns a corner), the antenna wants to be vertical. That generally means vertical electrical polarization.
Light acts like both a particle and a wave. These particle-waves are oriented in random directions. Polarisation filters basically filter out the randomly oriented waves, and ensure that only light that is 'polarized' in a certain direction can pass through.Horizontal polarisation is when the light waves are oriented horizontally, and vertical is when the waves are vertical. The same princaple applies to the whole EM spectrum.
Polarization of waves refers to the orientation of the oscillations of a wave as it travels through space. Waves can be polarized in various ways, such as linear, circular, or elliptical polarization. Polarization is important in many applications, such as in telecommunications, where it affects the transmission and reception of signals.
Polarization of an electromagnetic wave refers to the orientation of the electric field vector as the wave propagates. It can be linear, circular, or elliptical, depending on the direction and amplitude of the electric field. Polarization impacts the wave's ability to interact with certain materials and is an important property in various applications, such as communication and optics.
The vertical speed of a horizontal taut string depends on the wave speed because the tension in the string is responsible for transmitting the wave along its length. The wave speed is determined by the tension in the string and the properties of the medium it is traveling through, which in turn affects the vertical motion of the string as the wave propagates.
The amplitude of an electromagnetic wave does not change with polarization. Polarization refers to the orientation of the electric field component of the wave, while amplitude refers to the strength or magnitude of the wave. Changing the polarization of a wave does not alter its amplitude.
A sine wave is a simple vertical line in the frequency domain because the horizontal axis of the frequency domain is frequency, and there is only one frequency, i.e. no harmonics, in a pure sine wave.
S waves move in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. They are also known as shear waves because they oscillate particles perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.

Yes, plane polarization occurs in transverse waves. In transverse waves, the oscillations of the wave propagate perpendicular to the direction of the wave's travel. This allows the wave to exhibit different types of polarization, such as linear, circular, or elliptical polarization.
d. Polarization. Sound waves are mechanical waves that are longitudinal in nature and do not exhibit polarization, which is a property of transverse waves.
