Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
Are light waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Longitudinal
Give an exaple of a longitudinal and transverse wave?
A good example is vibrating guitar strings, as they are transverse, but the waves given off are sound, and sound is longtitude.
Are sound waves transverse waves while light waves are longitudinal waves or are all sound waves and light waves longitudinal waves?
Light waves are transverse.Sound waves may be transverse or longitudinal. Sound in gases can only be longitudinal.
