Question

what type of wave are x - rays, ultraviolet rays, and gamma rays?
transverse and electromagnetic
longitudinal and compression

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

X - rays, ultraviolet rays, and gamma rays are all part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves. Transverse waves have oscillations perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal (compression) waves have oscillations parallel to the direction of wave propagation, which is not the case for electromagnetic waves.

Answer:

transverse and electromagnetic
