Sound is example of what wave?
sound is an example of a light wave.
Is Light is an example of a mechanical wave?
No. Sound and ocean waves are.
What is non mechanical wave?
Non mechanical waves are Eletro magnetic waves. We can devide 2 waves. 1 is mechanical waves & 2 is electromagnetic waves. For example Sound is a mechanical wave & Light is an electromagnetic wave.
What is an example of an mechanical wave?
sound
Why is a longitudinal mechanical wave a sound wave?
a longitudinal wave is a vibration like sound therfore a longditudinal wave is a sound. The pressure Vibrations of frequency between 16 - 20000 hertz, which propagates in medium we perceive as a sound. But longitudinal mechanical wave is not necessarily sound - for example wave along the spring, or density waves forming spiral structure of galaxies!
Sound is example of what wave?
sound is an example of a light wave.
Is Light is an example of a mechanical wave?
No. Sound and ocean waves are.
What is sound an example of?
a mechanical wave that requires a medium through which to travel.
Sound travels in what kind of wave?
Sound is a longitudinal, mechanical wave that requires a medium.
Sound is reallly an example of?
Sound is really an example of wave propagation of energy. Energy could be transported by two modes. One is by the particles. A good example is electrical energy in the form of current is carried over by the particles such as electrons. The other one is by wave propagation. Wave too is further divided into mechanical and electromagnetic. Mechanical wave badly needs a material medium to get propagated but electromagnetic does not need a material medium. Sound is an example for mechanical wave and light is an example for electromagnetic wave.
What is the name of the mechanical wave that sound propagates with?
Sound propagates through a longitudinal wave, a type of mechanical wave.
What is non mechanical wave?
Non mechanical waves are Eletro magnetic waves. We can devide 2 waves. 1 is mechanical waves & 2 is electromagnetic waves. For example Sound is a mechanical wave & Light is an electromagnetic wave.

Is a mechanical wave a sound wave?
Yes, a sound wave is a mechanical wave. Sound waves need a medium (like air) to travel through. The energy of the wave, the mechanical energy, is transferred into the medium through which it is propagated.
What type of s mechanical wave is a sound wave?
sound wave is a longitudinal wave
Is sound a type of electromagnetic wave?
No. Sound is a mechanical wave, not an EM wave.
