Question

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

Explanation:

X - rays, ultraviolet rays, and gamma rays are part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves, meaning the oscillations (of electric and magnetic fields) are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal waves (like sound waves) have oscillations parallel to the direction of propagation, and compression waves are a type of longitudinal wave, which these rays are not. So the correct description is transverse and electromagnetic.

Answer:

transverse and electromagnetic
