A wave that undergoes refraction is typically a transverse wave, such as light or electromagnetic waves. Refraction occurs when the wave changes direction as it passes from one medium to another with a different density, causing a change in its speed and wavelength.
A transverse wave is a type of wave where the particles of the medium vibrate perpendicular to the direction of the wave's propagation. Examples of transverse waves include light waves and electromagnetic waves. Transverse waves can exhibit properties such as reflection, refraction, diffraction, and interference.
No, the frequency of a wave does not change when refraction occurs. Refraction only affects the speed and direction of the wave as it travels through different mediums, but the frequency remains constant.
Transverse waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. They exhibit properties such as amplitude, wavelength, frequency, and speed. Furthermore, they can undergo reflection, refraction, diffraction, and interference.

Refraction Phenomenon becomes possible for both transverse (light waves) and longitudinal (sound waves)
transverse nature of light is verified by polarisation.

No, the frequency of a wave does not change when refraction occurs. Refraction only affects the speed and direction of the wave as it travels through different mediums, but the frequency remains constant.
This means no refraction occurs i.e. Total internal reflection (all light reflected) occurs
Transverse waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. They exhibit properties such as amplitude, wavelength, frequency, and speed. Furthermore, they can undergo reflection, refraction, diffraction, and interference.

That depends on the substances where the refraction occurs. The relationship between the angles, and the index of refraction of both materials, is given by Snell's Law.
S-waves (or Secondary waves) and Love waves are both transverse seismic waves.
