Transverse. The wave raises and falls as the wave travels forward.
Elastic waves can be both transverse and longitudinal. Transverse waves cause particles to oscillate perpendicular to the direction of the wave, like ripples on a pond. Longitudinal waves cause particles to oscillate parallel to the direction of the wave, like compressional waves in a slinky.
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
Transverse waves have particles in the medium vibrating perpendicular to the direction in which the waves are traveling. Examples of transverse waves include electromagnetic waves like light and water waves.
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, not transverse waves.
Two examples of waves you can see are ocean waves at the beach and ripples on the surface of a pond or lake.

No. Radiant heat is an electromagnetic wave, and EM waves are transverse waves.
A transverse wave is a wave that the displacement of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. Examples of transverse waves are a ripple in a pond and a wave on a string. Transverse waves may occur on a wave, throughout a solid and on the surface of a wave. Transverse waves cannot propagate in a gas or a liquid because there is no mechanism for driving motion perpendicular to the propagation of the wave.
They are transverse waves.
Transverse waves have particles in the medium vibrating perpendicular to the direction in which the waves are traveling. Examples of transverse waves include electromagnetic waves like light and water waves.

Transverse waves are funny.
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, not transverse waves.

X- rays are transverse waves!x rays are electromagnetic waves and transverse .
