Transverse waves can be both mechanical and electromagnetic. In a mechanical transverse wave, the disturbance of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (e.g. waves on a string). In an electromagnetic transverse wave, the oscillations of electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation (e.g. light and radio waves).
Yes, a mechanical wave can be a transverse wave. In a transverse wave, the wave particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, causing the wave to move in a series of crests and troughs. This is in contrast to a longitudinal wave, where the wave particles oscillate parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
A transverse wave is called a mechanical wave because it requires a medium (such as air, water, or a solid) to propagate. The wave energy is transferred through the medium by causing particles to oscillate perpendicular to the direction of the wave's motion. This mechanical interaction between particles is what characterizes transverse waves.
A transverse wave may, or may not, be a mechanical wave (electromagnetic waves are also transverse).I don't know about congressional waves; you may want to ask a representative of congress in your country.

No. A light wave is a transverse electromagnetic wave.

There are mechanical and electromagnetic waves.

A transverse wave is a mechanical wave in which the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation. Examples include light waves and water waves.
Electromagnetic waves are not mechanical waves, as they do not require a medium (such as air or water) to propagate. Transverse and longitudinal waves, on the other hand, are mechanical waves that require a medium to travel through.
A type of mechanical wave with vibrations perpendicular to its direction of travel is a transverse wave. In a transverse wave, the particles of the medium oscillate up and down or side to side as the wave moves forward. Examples of transverse waves include light waves, water waves, and seismic S-waves.
Mechanical waves can be transverse, with particles oscillating perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, or longitudinal, with particles oscillating parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Transverse waves include water waves and electromagnetic waves, while sound waves are examples of longitudinal waves.
