Answer:
The given statement is: False
Explanation:
A wave in which the particles of the medium move in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the waves is known as a TRANSVERSE WAVE e.g Ripples on the surface of water
Compressional wave is a longitudinal wave that produces compressions and rarefaction when moving through the waves e.g a sound wave
As both are different things, the statement is wrong.
