No, electromagnetic waves are not longitudinal waves. They are transverse waves, meaning the oscillations of the wave are perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer.
Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature.
No, electromagnetic waves are not longitudinal in nature. They are transverse waves, meaning that the oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
Electromagnetic waves are not mechanical waves, as they do not require a medium (such as air or water) to propagate. Transverse and longitudinal waves, on the other hand, are mechanical waves that require a medium to travel through.
The energy of a longitudinal wave is related to its amplitude, frequency, and wavelength, rather than its direction of oscillation. Longitudinal waves can have high energy if they have a large amplitude and high frequency, but the presence of longitudinal motion alone does not determine the energy of the wave.
No, electromagnetic waves are classified as transverse waves. In a transverse wave, the oscillation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer. Longitudinal waves, on the other hand, have oscillations parallel to the direction of energy transfer.
Electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature.

No, electromagnetic waves are not longitudinal in nature. They are transverse waves, meaning that the oscillations of the electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
light waves or electromagnetic waves are transverse and sound waves are longitudinal
X-rays are a type of electromagnetic waves; electromagnetic waves are transverse waves.
No doubt about it; infra red rays are transverse in nature. Only sound waves are longitudinal. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves. Infra red belongs to that family of electromagnetic waves.
1.Longitudinal waves 2. Transverse waves
polarization is not possible for longitudinal waves in electromagnetic waves electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other and these two are perpendicular to direction of propagation so by using vertical or horizantal slits it is possible to polarize the electromagnetic waves where as in longitudinal waves the particles vibration is parllel to the direction of propagation so it is not possible to polarize the longitudinal waves
Electromagnetic waves are not mechanical waves, as they do not require a medium (such as air or water) to propagate. Transverse and longitudinal waves, on the other hand, are mechanical waves that require a medium to travel through.
Earthquake waves , electromagnetic waves and gravitational waves..
X- rays are transverse waves!x rays are electromagnetic waves and transverse .
Ultraviolet waves are part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum which all travel as transverse waves.
