What is a wave in which matter moves in the same direction as the wave?

The matter transfers the energy, it does not move very far. It circles at approximately the same spot as the wave energy passes.


What kind of wave moves in the same direction matter moves?

Such a wave is called a longitudinal wave.


In which type of waves do the particles in a medium vibrate in the same direction the wave is moving?

Longitudinal. An example of a longitudinal wave is sound. It pushes the medium particles forwards and backwards, parallel to the wave's direction. Transverse waves cause particles to move perpendicular to the wave. (E.g. visible light, x-rays, microwaves)
