Answer:

a) From definition a transverse wave is which one where the elements moves perpendicular to the direction of the wave. For example is a wave is moving from the left to the right the elements would be wibrating or moving upward or downward.

We have a lot examples for a transverse wave. For example water waves, strings on the musical instruments , light and radio waves.

b) We can identify a transverse wave if the particles are displaced perpendicular to the direction of the wave. Usually these types of wave occur in elastic solids. And we can identify it when we see a pattern perpendicular between the wave direction and the particles motion. In simple words we need to see that the wave is moving down and up.
