Waves are often classified as transverse or longitudinal. The sideways vibrations of a string and the surface waves on water are a good examples of transverse waves. Sound waves in fluids (e.g. sound in air, sound traveling under water) are examples of longitudinal waves. In solids, you can have both transverse and longitudinal waves.
What else can I help you with?
Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
In what type of waves do particles in the medium vibrate perpendicularly to the direction in which the waves are traveling?
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.
What type of waves are sound waves, and are they transverse waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, not transverse waves.
What kind of waves move up and down or perpendicular to the direction that the wave moves?
Transverse waves move up and down or perpendicular to the direction of the wave's movement. Examples include light waves, water waves, and electromagnetic waves.
What kind of waves are on a rope?
The waves on a rope are transverse waves. This means that the particles of the rope move perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation.

What kind of waves does sound have transverse waves or compression waves?
Sound is a compressional wave.
What kind of waves is electromagnetic radiation?
Transverse Wave
Are radio waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Transverse. Radio waves are electromagnetic waves, which are transverse.
Are heat waves transverse or longitudinal?
No. Radiant heat is an electromagnetic wave, and EM waves are transverse waves.
In what type of waves do particles in the medium vibrate perpendicularly to the direction in which the waves are traveling?
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.
What is a sentence for transverse waves?
Transverse waves are funny.
What type of waves are sound waves, and are they transverse waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, not transverse waves.
