The answer is they make sound waves. Sound waves are what we hear when we listen to people talk, music, or nature.

How is transverse waves and longitudinal wave similar?
They are two different types of waves. The few similarities are that they are both waves and they have the same direction of propagation.
Are em waves longitudinal are transverse?
EM waves are both Transverse and Longitudinal.
Is refraction a property of transverse waves longitudinal waves or both?
Refraction Phenomenon becomes possible for both transverse (light waves) and longitudinal (sound waves)
Are sound waves longlitudanal?
They can be either longitudinal or transverse. In gases, such as air, and in liquids, only longitudinal waves are possible. In solids, there can be both longitudinal and transverse waves.
Are longitudinal waves water waves?
Yes, water waves are a combination of both longitudinal and transverse motions.
Is a sound wave a transverse wave or longitudinal wave?
Sound waves are longitudinal.
Can the Doppler effect be observed with longitudinal waves transverse waves or both?
Both.
Can the Doppler effect be observed with longitudinal waves with transverse waves or with both?
Both.
What kind of waves are not transverse waves?
Waves are often classified as transverse or longitudinal. The sideways vibrations of a string and the surface waves on water are a good examples of transverse waves. Sound waves in fluids (e.g. sound in air, sound traveling under water) are examples of longitudinal waves. In solids, you can have both transverse and longitudinal waves.
Are waves on a rope and light waves are two examples of longitudinal waves?
No, neither are examples of longitudinal waves. Sound waves and compression waves in a spring are longitudinal waves. With light and rope waves, the axis of movement is 90 degrees to the direction of propagation, they are both transverse waves.
Is a longitudinal wave a mechinal wave?
It is not a synonym, in any case. Mechanical waves can be both longitudinal and transverse. Electromagnetic waves are transverse.
Compressions and rarefactions are kinds of?
They are the characteristics of waves ( both longitudinal and transverse waves).
