Question

transfers energy perpendicular to the direction of wave motion transfers energy parallel to the direction of wave motion carries energy from one place to another is composed of electric and magnetic fields carries energy through matter wave longitudinal wave transverse wave mechanical wave

Explanation:

• A wave is a disturbance that carries energy from one place to another.
• A longitudinal wave transfers energy parallel to the direction of wave motion.
• A transverse wave transfers energy perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.
• A mechanical wave carries energy through matter.
• Electromagnetic waves (not in the given options but for context, the "is composed of electric and magnetic fields" would relate to them) are a different type.

Answer:

wave: carries energy from one place to another
longitudinal wave: transfers energy parallel to the direction of wave motion
transverse wave: transfers energy perpendicular to the direction of wave motion
mechanical wave: carries energy through matter
