ANSWER

Step-by-step explanation

Longitudinal waves are waves that vibrate a medium parallel to the direction of the wave motion. They transfer energy but do not transfer matter as they move.

Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves and ultrasound waves

Transverse waves are waves in which the disturbance moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave. They transfer both energy and matter.

Examples of transverse waves are surface ripples on water and electromagnetic waves.

Hence, the correct options are:

=> Both Transverse and Longitudinal

=> Transverse

=> Longitudinal

=> Longitudinal

=> Transverse

=> Longitudinal

=> Transverse.

=> Both Transverse and Longitudinal
