Which is a transverse wave that requires a medium to move?

I would say the correct answer is ocean waves.
Although light waves and microwaves also require a medium, they don't require that medium to move. Sound waves are a type of transverse waves, however, they are longitudinal, unlike ocean waves, which makes them incorrect here. Ocean waves are transverse, and given that they only appear in water, they also require their medium (water) to move in order to be created.

Ocean wave
Both ocean waves and sound waves require a medium but ocean waves are transverse.

A wheel starts from rest and rotates with constant angular acceleration to reach an angular speed of 11.2 rad/s in 3.07 s. (a) f

Hitman42 [59]

(a) The angular acceleration of the wheel is given by
$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i }{t}$
where $\omega_i$ and $\omega_f$ are the initial and final angular speed of the wheel, and t the time.

In our problem, the initial angular speed is zero (the wheel starts from rest), so the angular acceleration is
$\alpha = \frac{(11.2 rad/s) - 0}{3.07 s} =3.65 rad/s^2$

(b) The wheel is moving by uniformly rotational accelerated motion, so the angle it covered after a time t is given by
$\theta (t) = \omega_i t + \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2$
where $\omega_i = 0$ is the initial angular speed. So, the angle covered after a time t=3.07 s is
$\theta= \frac{1}{2} \alpha t^2 = \frac{1}{2}(3.65 rad/s^2)(3.07 s)^2 = 17.2 rad$
