Answer:-
Longitudinal waves are waves where the particles of the medium move in the same direction as the wave. This means the wave causes compression and rarefaction in the medium, like sound waves traveling through air. In contrast, transverse waves move the particles of the medium perpendicular to the direction of the wave. An example of transverse waves is light waves or waves on a string, where the particles move up and down while the wave travels horizontally. The main difference between the two is the direction in which the medium’s particles move relative to the wave's direction of travel.
