Question

what is electromagnetic energy? what type of wave are light waves? transverse longitudinal

Explanation:

Light waves are electromagnetic waves. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves. In transverse waves, the particles of the medium (or in the case of electromagnetic waves, the electric and magnetic fields) vibrate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal waves have particle vibration parallel to the wave - propagation direction (e.g., sound waves in air).

Answer:

transverse
