In the results we can see the transverse wave alone has more energy as compared to the combined wave.

Explanation:

The wavelength wave speed and wave power of the combined wave is less than that of alone transverse wave with the same setting. Longitudinal wave is a wave whose waves travel along the line of propagation. It is different from the transverse wave. The transverse wave is the wave whose waves travel in perpendicular direction with the line of propagation.

Sound wave is a very common example of transverse wave. The transfers wave requires a medium to propagate from one to another place. this is the reason we cannot hear any sound in the space as there is no medium to carry the wave from one to another place.
