Just had this lesson this afternoon, 06.23.2009. Longitudinal/compressional waves were drawn as a spring. The rarefaction is drawn as the expanded part of the spring and the compression as the compressed part.

Draw a common Wave and label the following parts?
Draw a wave and label four parts
What are the parts to a longitudinal wave?
Condensation is the increase in density in a longitudinal wave, thus it signifies a high pressure area, which is higher energy, which is equated to the crest of a transverse wave.
Is a sound wave a transverse wave or longitudinal wave?
Sound waves are longitudinal.
Is a radio wave longitudinal?
Radio wave is not a longitudinal wave it is a transverse wave
What type of wave does sound travel in?
Longitudinal Wave
Is longitudinal a sound wave?
A sound wave is indeed a longitudinal wave as opposed to a transverse wave
Is ultrasound a transverse or longitudinal wave?
Sound, at least in gases like air, can only propagate as a longitudinal wave.
Must a wave be transverse or longitudinal explain?
A wave must be transverse or longitudinal or both.
What is a longitudinal wave and what is nessasery for a wave?
A longitudinal wave is a wave of which the disturbance direction is the same direction of the direction of the wave. Waves done in a spring and sound waves are an example. A longitudinal wave: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Why sound waves are longitudinal waves?
If the particles of the medium vibrate in the direction of propagation of wave, as in sound waves that's why sound waves are called longitudinal waves.
Is a sound wave a transverse wave?
No, a sound wave is a compressional wave.
What is compression and a rarefaction in a longitudinal wave?
When you have the complete compression and rarefaction of a longitudinal wave, that is one complete wave.
