Question
A wave going in a solid.
  1. Must be longitudinal
  2. May be longitudinal
  3. Must be transverse
  4. May be transverse.

Answer

  1. May be longitudinal
  1. May be transverse.

Explanation:

Particles in a solid are very close to each other; thus. both longitudinal and transverse waves can travel through it.
