Sound waves are a longitudinal wave - a compression and rarefaction.
These waves can vary in frequency, and by their complexity.
Some sounds are pleasant and musical, whilst other waves are unpleasant or raucous.
Sound waves also vary in amplitude. from the softest to the painfully loud.

What types of waves are created by a jackhammer?
It is a form of sound waves.
What are the Types of waves encounter daily?
Water waves, sound, light.
What evidence is there that sound waves are all electromagnetic in nature?
I think you are confusing something. Sound waves, and electromagnetic waves, are two different types of waves.
What types of waves are associated with the Doppler effect?
The Doppler effect is most noticed when it comes to three types of waves. They are water waves, sound waves and light waves.
What are 2 types of waves?
1. Sound waves 2. Light wave

What types of waves carry sound?
sound sent through liquids or gases is called compression waves sound sent through solids is called longitudinal and transverse waves
What are types of energy that travel in waves?
Take your pick: water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, gravitational waves.
Do microwaves work with sound waves at all?
Microwaves and sound waves are similar because they are electromagnetic waves. The main difference between the two types of waves is the length of the wave. Sound waves are longer than microwaves.
