Waves may be classified according to the direction of vibration relative to that of the energy transfer
Not very well, because they're different types of waves. They have some similar properties, but water waves are transverse waves (the water goes up and down, perpendicular to the direction of travel) and sound waves are longitudinal waves (the air vibrates parallel to the direction of travel).
Electromagnetic waves are classified according to their wavelength and frequency and this classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.

this is the waves of secondary waves that has perpendicular to the direction of waves
Waves may be classified according to the direction of vibration relative to that of the energy transfer
Mechanical waves are produced when a source of energy causes a medium to vibrate. Mechanical waves are classified by how they move. There are two types of mechanical waves: transverse waves and longitudinal waves. Transverse means "across." Longitude means "horizontal". Transverse waves move the particles of the medium perpendicular to the direction in which the waves are traveling. Longitudinal waves move the particles of the medium parallel to the direction in which the waves are traveling. by how they move
To classify a wave as either a deep or shallow water wave, you would have to be knowledgeable in the science behind wave classification. Waves can be classified according to direction of vibrations and depth.
Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves I.E the direction of movement of each particle in the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the transfer of energy, similar to a water wave. Sound waves are transverse and so the direction of the movement of the particles in the medium is the same direction as the movement of the energy.
They are two different types of waves. The few similarities are that they are both waves and they have the same direction of propagation.
"True, the Seismic Waves change speed and direction when they encounter different materials."

Because they are longitudinal waves. The direction of oscillation of the particles is parallel to the direction of propagation of the waves.
Light travels in the direction it was emitted. Light cannot steer itself towards any particular object.
