Which of the following is not a characteristic of a sound wave?
It is also known as a compression wave
What name is given to a wave where the motion of the particles is in the same direction as the wave motion?
This is known as a Longitudinal wave or Compression / Pressure wave. In seismology (the scientific study of vibration within the earth), compression waves are known as Primary waves or P-waves.
What is the fastest moving earthquake wave?
The P-wave which is a form of body wave known as a compression or longitudinal wave.
What makes a compression wave?
compression wave is a wave like a sound wave
What is longitudinal ( compression) wave?
When the particles of a medium displaces due to compression and rarefaction in the direction of the force, it is known as longitudinal waves.
What are sound waves A Standing wave B Transverse wave C Longitudinal wave?
Longitudinal (also called compression) wave
What is compression and a rarefaction in a longitudinal wave?
When you have the complete compression and rarefaction of a longitudinal wave, that is one complete wave.
What is sound of wave?
A compression wave.
Is a water wave a compression wave?
my answer is no
How is the density at a compression in a compressional wave like the height of a transverse wave?
The amount of compression of a compression wave is like the amplitude of a transverse wave.
What are the areas of compression and rarefraction an dwhich type wave do they aply?
LONGITUDINAL wave. Air layers come closer at a particular time at a particular place is known to be compression. At the same place after some time the layers get separated. This is rarefaction. For example, a sound wave.
Is a sonic wave a longitudinal wave?
No, a compression-rarefaction wave.
