Question

Which are examples of transverse waves? Check all that apply.

Answer 1

a water wave where the water moves up and down as the wave passes through the ocean, an oscillating string and a wave of fans in a stadium

Answer 2

The examples of transverse waves are earthquake S waves and Radio waves with visible light and X- rays as the other examples.

Explanation:

The transverse waves are the waves which run perpendicular to direction of the wave. They oscillate at right angle to main wave. They form the crest and troughs which are alternate to each other. All the electromagnetic waves are simply transverse waves as the electric field generated waves are always perpendicular to the magnetic field generated waves.
