Sound is a longitudinal, mechanical wave that requires a medium.
That sounds like the description of a transverse wave.
Sound is a kind of wave, i.e. it travels in a waveform. It also has an energy but is negligible.
Sound travels in a mechanical wave.
I suppose that you think to sounds (acoustic waves).
a light wave
Longitudinal wave.
All light travels as a wave
seismic waves
Sound waves
water travels as a transverse wave (meaning that the water molecules move in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the path of the wave. the molecules move up and down while the wave moves in horizontal direction).
