Explain how surface waves can have characteristics of both longitudinal waves and transverse waves. Please use 3 content related sentences.

Surface waves can have characteristics of both longitudinal and transverse waves in the following way;

The motion of the surface waves is up and down which is perpendicular to the direction of the wave. This is similar to the motion of transverse waves whereas the the motion of longitudinal waves is parallel.Energy is transferred in all these waves in the form of waves without the transportation of matter. The reason is that waves always originate from the source of its vibration.Surface wave also falls in the category of a mechanical wave, similar to longitudinal wave and transverse wave. Mechanical waves transfer energy through medium without transfer of matter, which is what surface, longitudinal and transverse waves do.

I hope the answer was helpful.
