Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Transverse waves – When the movement of the particles is at right angles or perpendicular to the motion of the energy, then this type of wave is known as a transverse wave.
Detailed explanation-2: -Transverse waves have particles moving at right angles to the direction of propagation.
Detailed explanation-3: -The direction a wave propagates is perpendicular to the direction it oscillates for transverse waves. A wave does not move mass in the direction of propagation; it transfers energy. Transverse waves oscillate in the z-y plane but travel along the x axis.
