- Longitudinal waves
- Transverse waves
- Both longitudinal and transverse waves
- None of these
Hint:
A wave whose vibration is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
The correct answer is: Transverse waves

- We see that two people are holding a rope, and one person is moving the rope up and down; as a result, transverse waves are generated on a rope.
- So, the correct option is b.
