Are transverse and congressional waves a type of mechanical wave?

A transverse wave may, or may not, be a mechanical wave (electromagnetic waves are also transverse).I don't know about congressional waves; you may want to ask a representative of congress in your country.


Which of the following is not a mechanical wave' a transverse a longitudinal or a electromagnetic?

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.


Is transverse a mechanical wave or electromagnetic wave?

Transverse waves can be both mechanical and electromagnetic. In a mechanical transverse wave, the disturbance of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (e.g. waves on a string). In an electromagnetic transverse wave, the oscillations of electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (e.g. light and radio waves).


Is it true transverse and congressional waves are the two types of mechanical waves?

The two types of mechanical waves are transverse waves and longitudinal waves. Transverse waves have oscillations perpendicular to the wave's direction, while longitudinal waves have oscillations parallel to the wave's direction. Congressional waves are not a recognized type of wave.


Mechanical waves can be transverse or wave?

Mechanical waves can be transverse, with particles oscillating perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, or longitudinal, with particles oscillating parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Transverse waves include water waves and electromagnetic waves, while sound waves are examples of longitudinal waves.

Are ultraviolet waves transverse or longitudinal waves?

Ultraviolet waves are part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum which all travel as transverse waves.

What are types of transverse waves?

A transverse wave is a wave in which the direction of displacement is perpendicular to the direction of propagation, as a surface wave of water. Another name for this word is an electromagnetic wave.


What are wave classification?

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
