Do longitudinal waves need a medium to transport energy?
Yes, for example sound is a longitudinal wave. It cannot travel in a vacuum.
Is it true that longitudinal waves never need a medium to transport the energy?
They do need a medium
The movement of energy through substances in longitudinal waves is?
The movement of energy through substances in longitudinal waves is sound. :)
Do longitudinal waves have high energy?
Yes. Longitudinal waves can produce standing waves.
What is the difference between how transverse waves and longitudinal waves move particles?
In transverse waves, particles move in a parallel & perpendicular direction relative to the direction of energy transport.

Yes, for example sound is a longitudinal wave. It cannot travel in a vacuum.
Is it true that longitudinal waves never need a medium to transport the energy?
They do need a medium
describe the longitudinal nature of sound waves?
waves in which the motion of the individual particles of the medium is in a direction that is parallel to the direction of energy transport.
The movement of energy through substances in longitudinal waves is?
The movement of energy through substances in longitudinal waves is sound. :)

Yes. Longitudinal waves can produce standing waves.
What is the difference between how transverse waves and longitudinal waves move particles?
In transverse waves, particles move in a parallel & perpendicular direction relative to the direction of energy transport.
Movement of energy through substances in longitudinal waves is what?
It is sound waves
What are energy waves that are vibrations traveling through earth?
Seismic waves: longitudinal compression waves.
What are energy waves that are vibration traveling through earth?
Seismic waves: longitudinal compression waves.
What do longitudinal waves have to do with earthquakes?
The disturbance from an earthquake propagates as a wave. This wave can be either longitudinal or transverse. (Since waves that pass through the Earth's core are always longitudinal, geologists conclude that the Earth is liquid. A liquid won't transport transverse waves.)
Are p waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
How does sound waves travel in air and transfer energy?
As longitudinal waves. It transfers energy through vibrations of air layes
