Want this question answered?
transverse waves.
light waves are transverse waves in which both electric and magnetic fields are mutually perpendicular to each other and perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation
Light wave and water waves
I have 4 examples: tranverse longitudinal surface and torsional waves sorry :( I don't know the rest
This type of wave is called longitudinal waves.

An earthquake.

Sound waves are longitudinal.
If the particles of the medium vibrate in the direction of propagation of wave, as in sound waves that's why sound waves are called longitudinal waves.
Sound, at least in gases like air, can only propagate as a longitudinal wave.

A longitudinal wave is a wave of which the disturbance direction is the same direction of the direction of the wave. Waves done in a spring and sound waves are an example. A longitudinal wave: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
tranverse waves
A sound wave is indeed a longitudinal wave as opposed to a transverse wave
