compression
The vibration of the Longitudinal wave is parallel to the wave direction and the vibration is perpendicular to the direction in the transverse wave.
a wave in which matter is moved back and forth in the direction the wave is moving
what is a wave with a low, smooth crest called? what is a wave with a low, smooth crest called?
The answer to your question is a longitudinal wave. The motion of the wave is parallel to the direction of the particles. An example is a sound wave.When particles move perpendicular to the direction of the wave, the wave is called a transverse wave. An example is a water wave.
This occurs when transverse waves and longitudinal waves combine!
CREST
crest
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.
A wave must be transverse or longitudinal or both.
Earthquakes generate both transverse and longitudinal waves.
The distance from crest to crest in a transverse wave is called a wavelength.
its a transverse wave

Radio wave is not a longitudinal wave it is a transverse wave
Light is transverse in nature.
Transverse :)
Transverse wave has crests and troughs. But longitudinal has only compressions and rarefactions. Any way while drawing figures even for longitudinal as in the case of organ pipes we follow only crest and trough structures.
