Explain wave (w.r.t. Physics)? Transverse wave? Electromagnetic mave?

1.	Explain wave (w.r.t. Physics)? Transverse wave? Electromagnetic mave? Give examples of wave? Explain in layman language (if possible).
Answer» disturbance that travel in a medium, transporting ENERGY and momentum WITHOUT the flow of matter as a whole are called waves. Sound waves, visible light waves, RADIO waves and waves on a string are few examples of waves. $\bigstar$ TRANSVERSE wave : If the particles of medium vibrate PERPENDICULAR to the direction of the wave motion, the wave is called as transverse wave. Example : wave of string of sitar/violin rods and water waves. $\bigstar$ Electromagnetic wave : The waves which may not require medium for their propagation are known as Electromagnetic waves or non mechanical waves. Example : X - rays, gamma rays, micro waves.

Answer»

disturbance that travel in a medium, transporting ENERGY and momentum WITHOUT the flow of matter as a whole are called waves.

Sound waves, visible light waves, RADIO waves and waves on a string are few examples of waves.

$\bigstar$ TRANSVERSE wave :

If the particles of medium vibrate PERPENDICULAR to the direction of the wave motion, the wave is called as transverse wave.
Example : wave of string of sitar/violin rods and water waves.

$\bigstar$ Electromagnetic wave :

The waves which may not require medium for their propagation are known as Electromagnetic waves or non mechanical waves.
Example : X - rays, gamma rays, micro waves.
