@Hoodmemes mhmm what is the difference then? I'm on here for a reason :help with work:...

Well the meaning of Transverse waves:a transverse wave is a moving wave whose oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of the wave or path of propagation. (from google)

Longitudinal wave:Like some waves that move in a  parallel direction
