Electromagnetic waves do not lose energy over time. The field of magnetism swaps form and orientation with the electric field and back. There are frictional losses in mechanical waves which dampen them out over time.
A transverse wave is called a mechanical wave because it requires a medium (such as air, water, or a solid) to propagate. The wave energy is transferred through the medium by causing particles to oscillate perpendicular to the direction of the wave's motion. This mechanical interaction between particles is what characterizes transverse waves.
The main difference between a longitudinal wave and a transverse wave is the direction of particle oscillation relative to the direction of wave propagation. In a longitudinal wave, particles oscillate parallel to the direction of wave travel, while in a transverse wave, particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.
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).
A mechanical wave is any wave pattern that results from one or many forces. A mechanical wave can be a transverse wave, such as seen on a violin string, or a longditudinal wave, such as sound waves.
In a transverse wave, amplitude is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position to the crest or trough of the wave. It is a measure of the energy carried by the wave.

The vibration of the Longitudinal wave is parallel to the wave direction and the vibration is perpendicular to the direction in the transverse wave.

No. A light wave is a transverse electromagnetic wave.

In a transverse wave, amplitude is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position to the crest or trough of the wave. It is a measure of the energy carried by the wave.
A transverve 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.
There are mechanical and electromagnetic waves.
A transverse wave is a mechanical wave in which the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation. Examples include light waves and water waves.
