Mainly because it isn't a wave.
It depends on the type of transverse wave. A transverse water wave travels through water. A transverse wave on a rope travels along the rope. A transverse electromagnetic wave, however, needs no medium. It can propagate through a vacuum.
Transverse wave.
Transverse. The wave raises and falls as the wave travels forward.
yes
A wave in a body of water is a traveling transverse wave because the motion of the medium (water) is perpendicular to the motion of the wave.
Water is both a Longitudinal and Transverse Wave. They are Transverse on the surface, this is because the motion of the surface water waves go up and down,which is perpendicular from the still surface of the water. Longitudinal because the underwater goes back and forth which is parallel to the water, making it Longitudinal.

no
No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.No, the other way round: An electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave.There are other kinds of transverse waves, for example, the waves on a water surface.

A wave in a body of water is a traveling transverse wave because the motion of the medium (water) is perpendicular to the motion of the wave.
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.
Examples of the transverse waves include the water and light waves.
The particles in a transverse wave are displaced perpendicularly to the direction of the wave motion. For example, water waves are transverse waves. Think of how in the sea, the wave is moving towards the shore, but the water goes up and down. The water molecules are being displaced vertically, but the wave itself is moving horizontally. This is the characteristic motion of a transverse wave. Transverse waves are also able to move through a vacuum. Light, for example, is a transverse wave, and it can move through space, which is a vacuum. (A longitudinal wave, on the other hand, has particles which move in the same direction as the wave, and cannot travel through a vacuum. For example, sound waves.)
