The correct option is B False
It is a flase statement. Sound waves through solids and water surface behaves as a transverse waves. On the other hand, all types of electromagnetic waves like UV rays, Infrared rays do not require any material medium to travel. They travel through vacuum from the Sun to the surface of the Earth. And these electromagnetic waves are transverse in nature. This contradicts our statement in the question.
