What type of wave does sound travel in?
Longitudinal Wave
In what type of wave do the particle in the medium experience forces parallel to the wave's direction?
The type of wave in which the particles in the medium experience forces parallel to the wave's direction is the longitudinal wave. It is a mechanical wave that travels through a series of compressions and rarefactions.

How does a tide wave start?
A tide wave is generated by the gravitational forces of the moon and sun on the Earth's oceans. These forces create bulges in the ocean's surface, resulting in the rise and fall of water levels that we observe as tides. The rotation of the Earth and the topography of the ocean floor also influence the propagation of tide waves.
What does a velocity of a wave describe?
The speed the wave is traveling through space
In what type of wave do the particles in the medium experience up and down forces perpendicular to the wave's direction?
transverse wave
Describe a compressional wave?
k
How do you describe a wave?
Wave is just a disturbance in a regular/periodic/organized way.
What are ways to describe a wave?
Waves can be described by:frequency/periodspeedintensitywavelengthamplitudepressureshapedecibelsHertzphonssonesmelsIf you are looking for adjectives that can be used to illustrate or depict a wave, I suggest you ask another question with the type of wave you're looking to describe (soundwave, ocean wave, Miss America's wave, wave of emotion, waves in my hair, a sway, radio wave, light wave, electromagnetic wave, etc.)
In what type of wave do the particles in the medium experience forces parallel to the waves direction?
longtitudidal wave
