they both make motion wave
A transverse wave displaces particles perpendicular to the wave's direction of propagation, like ocean waves. A compression wave displaces particles parallel to the wave's direction of propagation, like sound waves.
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
First, it's not called compression wave but a longitudinal wave, second, neither and both because it's a mix of both. For it looks like a transvers, but moves in circles like a longitudinal wave.
No, longitudinal waves are compression waves that travel through the ground by causing particles to move parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. Transverse waves, on the other hand, cause particles to move perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation.
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 is a compressional wave.
No. surface waves on the surface of water is transverse in nature. It has crests and troughs. Compression and rarefaction will be in longitudinal wave. example sound waves.
Compression waves (as opposed to transverse waves).
Here is a good site for learning about waves. Hope it helps. http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Class/waves/
No, sunlight and radiowaves are not compression waves. Sunlight consists of electromagnetic waves, while radiowaves are a type of electromagnetic wave in the radio frequency range. Compression waves are mechanical waves that require a medium to propagate, such as sound waves.

No, ultrasonic waves cannot be polarized because they are mechanical waves that propagate through a medium by vibration and compression, unlike electromagnetic waves which can be polarized due to their transverse nature.

No. Radiant heat is an electromagnetic wave, and EM waves are transverse waves.
transverse; longitudinal.
They are transverse waves.
