Mechanical transverse waves require tightly packed medium such as solids. Longitudinal waves, such as sound, can travel through solids or fluids(liquids and gases). ... Transverse waves cannot propagate in a gas or aliquid because there is no mechanism for driving motion perpendicular to the propagation of the wave.
