No. Infrared is a type of electromagnetic waves, and therefore, a transverse wave.
No, infrared waves are an example of electromagnetic waves, which are transverse waves. Longitudinal waves involve particle displacement in the same direction as the energy transfer. Infrared waves, like all electromagnetic waves, have electric and magnetic fields oscillating perpendicular to the direction of energy propagation.
No, infrared rays are electromagnetic waves that are transverse in nature, meaning the vibration of the waves is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
The human brain does not perceive infrared waves directly. Infrared radiation is detected by specialized sensors or cameras that can then convert the signals into a form that the brain can interpret, such as images or data. Metal objects reflect infrared waves differently than other materials due to their properties, and this information can be used for various applications like thermal imaging or object detection.
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, where the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. Light waves, on the other hand, are transverse waves, where the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.
Light waves are transverse waves. This means that the oscillation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of energy propagation.

No Sound waves are longitudinal. Being longitudinal they cannot be POLARISED.

longitudinal wave
All sound waves are longitudinal (compression/rarefaction) waves.
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, where the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. Light waves, on the other hand, are transverse waves, where the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.
Light waves are transverse waves. This means that the oscillation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of energy propagation.
Longitudinal waves are mechanical waves in which the particles of the medium vibrate in the same direction as the wave's energy propagation. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves and seismic waves.
