Examples of transverse waves include seismic S (secondary) waves, and the motion of the electric (E) and magnetic (M) fields in an electromagnetic plane wave, which both oscillate perpendicularly to each other as well as to the direction of energy transfer. Therefore an electromagnetic wave consists of two transverse waves, visible light being an example of an electromagnetic wave. See electromagnetic spectrum for information on different types of electromagnetic waves.
An oscillating string is another example of a transverse wave; a more everyday example would be an audience wave.
Some examples of transverse waves include Atomic, Chemical, Heat, Electrical, Light, and Mechanical energy.

Is a transverse wave a electromagentic wave?
No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.
Give an example of a logitudinal and transverse wave?
Sound waves and Primary Earthquake waves are longitudinal.
Give one example of transverse waves?
Radio waves and Light. Audio waves are not considered transverse. Since pressure is a constant, it eliminates a vector, thus making it a longitudinal wave.
What are Example of transverse waves?
Examples of transverse waves would be light waves, seismic waves or any other type of electromagnetic wave.
Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
Light wave are an example of transverse waves?
yes it is
Are AM radio waves are an example of longitudinal waves?
No. Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic waves; electroctromagnetic waves are transverse waves.
Are heat waves transverse or longitudinal?
No. Radiant heat is an electromagnetic wave, and EM waves are transverse waves.
Are infrared waves are an example for longitudinal wave?
No, infrared is a type of electromagnetic waves, and those are transverse waves.
What kind of waves are electromagnet waves?
They are transverse waves.
What are some interesting facts about transverse waves?
Lots of things are true about transverse waves. Feel free to ask more specific questions.
Are electromagnetic waves transverse or compressional waves?
They are transverse waves.
