When playing tennis, if you hit the ball off of the top end of the racket, an uncomfortable standing wave vibration is produced in the racket. This wave is

Transverse.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

An electromagnetic spectrum refers to a range of frequency and wavelength that an electromagnetic wave is distributed or extends. The electromagnetic spectrum comprises of gamma rays, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, radio waves, and infrared radiation.

A transverse wave can be defined as a type of wave in which particles of the medium of propagation oscillates or vibrates in a direction that is perpendicular to the direction that the wave moves i.e at right angle to the direction of propagation of the wave.

Basically, sound is a transverse and all transverse wave are the direct opposite of a longitudinal wave that usually travel in the same direction of its oscillation.

Hence, this wave is transverse.
