Compression waves.
Transverse waves cause particles to move back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the wave motion. Longitudinal waves, on the other hand, cause particles to move back and forth in a direction parallel to the wave motion.
Longitudinal waves cause the medium to vibrate in a direction parallel to the wave's motion. This means that the particles of the medium move back and forth parallel to the direction of the wave. Sound waves are an example of longitudinal waves, as they propagate through air by causing the air particles to compress and rarefy in the direction of the wave.
Longitudinal waves move in a direction parallel to the direction of vibration of the particles in the medium through which the wave is propagating. This means that the particles oscillate back and forth in the same direction that the wave is traveling.
Longitudinal waves have movement that is parallel to the direction of the wave. In these waves, the particles of the medium vibrate back and forth in the same direction that the wave is traveling. Sound waves are an example of longitudinal waves.
Longitudinal Wave - Oscillations where particles are displaced parallel to the wave direction.

Longitudinal Wave - Oscillations where particles are displaced parallel to the wave direction.
Longitudinal waves move the particles of the medium in the same direction in which the waves are traveling. This produces a back-and-forth motion of the particles parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves and seismic waves.
Transverse waves occur when the motion of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the wave. When the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave, longitudinal waves are formed. In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium move back and forth parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
Longitudinal waves have disturbances that are parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. This means that the particles of the medium move back and forth in the same direction as the wave. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves.
Waves move longitudinally because the particles in the medium vibrate back and forth in the same direction as the wave's propagation. This causes the wave to move in a parallel direction to the vibration of the particles.
Longitudinal waves cause particles of the medium to vibrate parallel to the direction the waves travel. In these waves, compressions (areas of high pressure) and rarefactions (areas of low pressure) move in the same direction as the wave propagation, causing the particles to oscillate back and forth in the direction of wave motion. Sound waves are an example of longitudinal waves.
Longitudinal waves cause particles in matter to move back and forth along the same direction in which the waves travel. This type of wave propagation occurs in mediums where the particles vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. Sound waves are a common example of longitudinal waves.
When the particles of a medium displaces due to compression and rarefaction in the direction of the force, it is known as longitudinal waves.
