Confidence votes 59.7K. Marbury v. Madison, 5 US 137 (1803) Marshall's interpretation of Article III was that, as an independent branch of the tripartite federal government, part of the Court's responsibility was judicial review, which allows the Supreme Court to analyze legislation and nullify any laws they determine to be unconstitutional.
light waves or electromagnetic waves are transverse and sound waves are longitudinal. Electromagnetic waves can be both transverse and longitudinal waves. Transverse waves are like ocean waves. They move the medium perpendicular to the medium which is the substance the wave is traveling on.
Waves are generally divided up into two types of wave - longitudinal and transverse. Longitudinal waves are waves where the displacement of the particles is parallel to the direction of travel of the wave (the vibrations are along the direction of the travel of the wave). The example of this is sound waves, where there are compressions and rarefactions in the air that cause the sound to be transmitted.
