transversal wave doesn't require medium to travel whereas longitudinal waves required medium.transversal can travel through vacuum whereas longitudinal cant

naveengaloot: try more please
v123: one of the advantage of transverse wave is that it can travel through
vaccum whereas a longitudinal wave cannot travel through a vacuum

Transverse wave can be polarized , which means we can makes light waves travel only in one plane , it allows vibrations in one plane

longitudinal waves cannot be polarized
--------------------------
Transverse waves can travel through the vacuum also , light and some of the electromagnetic waves can travel without a medium and they belong to transverse waves

longitudinal waves cannot travel without a medium it means it cannot travel in space
