Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
What kind of waves are not transverse waves?
Waves are often classified as transverse or longitudinal. The sideways vibrations of a string and the surface waves on water are a good examples of transverse waves. Sound waves in fluids (e.g. sound in air, sound traveling under water) are examples of longitudinal waves. In solids, you can have both transverse and longitudinal waves.
Is a rainbow a transverse or compression wave?
A rainbow is made of different wavelengths (different colors) of light waves, and light waves are usually considered transverse waves.
Are electromagnetic waves transverse or compressional waves?
They are transverse waves.
Are shock waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
these
What type of waves do fluids transmit and why?
fluids usually transmit only what type of waves
Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
Are sound waves and light waves transverse?
Light is an electromagnetic wave; and those are transverse. Sound is usually a longitudinal wave.

Can Fluids transmit P waves?
Yes, P (longitudinal) waves can travel through solid, liquid, and gaseous mediums.
Is a rainbow a transverse or compression wave?
A rainbow is made of different wavelengths (different colors) of light waves, and light waves are usually considered transverse waves.
Are heat waves transverse or longitudinal?
No. Radiant heat is an electromagnetic wave, and EM waves are transverse waves.
What kind of waves are electromagnet waves?
They are transverse waves.
Are electromagnetic waves transverse or compressional waves?
They are transverse waves.
Are shock waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?

In what type of waves do particles in the medium vibrate perpendicularly to the direction in which the waves are traveling?
transverse waves.
What types of waves are light waves?
it is a transverse wave (:
