Solution

The correct option is C longitudinal and transverse
When a motor boat sails in water, waves will be produced on the surface of the water. Water waves are a combination of longitudinal and transverse waves as the particles move in a circular path. We can't classify them as purely longitudinal or purely transverse waves.
