Why can't transverse waves travel through air?

Answers

Answered by LatikaVerma

Light and electromagnetic waves are also transverse waves, however they are self-propagating, meaning that they sustain themselves due to the magnetic field they create, and thus can travel through a vacuum, only slowing down slightly when passing through water or air.
