What is the part of the longitudinal wave where the particles are close together called?
Compression is the part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are crowded together. Rarefaction is the part where the particles are spread apart.
What direction do sound waves travel?
It depends if its transverse or longitudinal.
Wave in which particles move parallel to wave motions?
This type of wave is called longitudinal waves.
Whatis a longitudinal wave?
Longitudinal waves are waves where the vibration of the particles is parallel to the direction of travel of the wave for eg sound is longitudinal wave. Stationary waves are produced when two or more progressive waves of the same frequency and amplitude pass through each other.
What wave moves the same direction as it travels?
A wave in which the particles travel in the same direction as the wave is called a seismic wave. It is usually generated by earthquakes.
A wave in which particles move back and forth at right angles to the direction of travel is called what?
a wave in which matter is moved back and forth in the direction the wave is moving
What type of wave does sound travel in?
Longitudinal Wave
How do the particles of energy in a longitudinal wave move?
In a longitudinal wave, the particles do not move with the wave. The particle movement is parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. This means that the particles move left and right which in turn makes the other particles start to oscillate. This creates a wave. longitudinal pressure waves are also known as sound waves.
What happened to the particles in a longitudinal wave as the amplitude increases?
As amplitude increases, the particles in a longitudinal wave become denser.
What is the part of the longitudinal wave where the particles are close together called?
Compression is the part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are crowded together. Rarefaction is the part where the particles are spread apart.
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.
What direction do sound waves travel?
It depends if its transverse or longitudinal.

What wave moves the same direction as it travels?
A wave in which the particles travel in the same direction as the wave is called a seismic wave. It is usually generated by earthquakes.
What happens to the particles in a longitudinal wave as the amplitude increases?
the speed at which the energy travels increases.
Is ultrasound a transverse or longitudinal wave?
Sound, at least in gases like air, can only propagate as a longitudinal wave.
