no, sound waves are not circular. the top of a wave is called a crest and the bottom of a wave is called a trough. they are virtical waves.how high they are (amplitude) shows the loudness of the wave.the higher they are the greater the amplitude.how many crests pass a point in a certain amount of time is called frequency.the greater the frequency the higher the pitch.the sound waves that they do on television are just to help you explain in more.
