Yes. In a transverse wave the direction of particle movement is perpendicular to the direction of the wave.
In a transverse wave, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation. This means the particles oscillate up and down or side to side as the wave passes through the medium. Examples of transverse waves include light waves and electromagnetic waves.
When a wave propagation takes place in a material medium no particle of the medium moves along with the wave. Only the partciles of the medium make vibrations or oscillations. These are of two type One if the particles vibrate simple harmonically in the direction of propagation then it is said to be LONGITUDINAL If the vibrations are perpendicular to the direction of porpagation then it will be said to be TRANSVERSE
Yes, a transverse wave does move the medium. In a transverse wave, the oscillations of the particles in the medium are perpendicular to the direction in which the wave is moving. This motion of the particles transmits the energy of the wave through the medium.
A transverse wave is a mechanical wave in which the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation. Examples include light waves and water waves.
A wave in which the matter moves in the same direction as the wave is known as a longitudinal wave. In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of energy transport. Sound waves are examples of longitudinal waves.
When a compression wave travels through a medium, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave. Compression waves are commonly called longitudinal waves.
A wave where the medium moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave is called a transverse wave. Its highest point is called the crest.
Perpendicular to the direction the wave travels.

No, an electromagnetic wave is NOT a compressional wave. An electromagnetic wave is best described as a transverse wave. Remember that in a compressional wave, the energy moves parallel to the medium of the wave, while in a transverse wave, the energy moves perpendicular to the medium.
A transverse wave is a moving wave in which the displacement of the medium carrying the wave is perpendicular to the direction of the wave propogation. An example of a transverse wave is a string oscillating up and down.
When a compression wave travels through a medium, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave. Compression waves are commonly called longitudinal waves.
In a wave, the movement of the medium is what causes the wave to propagate. The wave itself does not transport anything, it is the disturbance in the medium that propagates and causes the wave motion. The particles in the medium oscillate back and forth in the direction of the wave propagation, transferring energy without actual displacement of the medium as a whole.
Yes, a transverse wave does move the medium. In a transverse wave, the oscillations of the particles in the medium are perpendicular to the direction in which the wave is moving. This motion of the particles transmits the energy of the wave through the medium.
Transverse I think.

Transverse Wave is a wave that oscillates perpendicular to the axis along which the wave travel or a transverse wave is a wave in which vibrating element moves in a direction perpendicular to the direction of advance of the wave.Example: The Waves in bodies of water are also transverse waves.
