What are waves in which the particles vibrate back and forth along the path that the wave travels?
Compression waves (as opposed to transverse waves).
What else can I help you with?
Wave in which particles in the medium vibrate back and forth along the path that the wave travels?
Longitudinal Wave
What is a wave in which particles in the medium vibrate back and forth along the path a wave travels?
A longitudinal wave, like sound.
Wave motion in which particles vibrate back and forth in the same direction as the wave travels?
a compressional wave
In what wave does the particles vibrate back an forth along the path of the wave?
Longitudinal wave.
What happens to the air particles as the sound wave travels through them?
As the sound wave travels through the air, the air particles vibrate back and forth in the direction of the wave, transferring the sound energy.
What particles move back and forth?
All particles vibrate in some manner.
When sound travels through air the particles?
When sound travels through air, the particles in the air vibrate back and forth in the same direction as the sound wave. These vibrations create changes in air pressure that propagate through the air as sound waves.
What is a wave in which particles in the medium vibrates back and forth along the path the wave travels?
A longitudinal wave, like sound.
What are waves in which the particles vibrate back and forth along the path that the wave travels called?
Compression waves (as opposed to transverse waves).
What is the wave motion in which particles vibrate back and forth in the same direction as the wave travels called?
Longitudinal wave. (as opposed to Transverse waves, where the vibrations are perpendicular to the direction of movement.)
When sound travels through air what do the particles do?
When sound travels through air, the particles vibrate back and forth in the direction that the sound wave is traveling. This vibration creates areas of high pressure and low pressure, which our ears perceive as sound. The closer the particles are together, the higher the pressure and the louder the sound.
What Are waves in which particles move back and forth parallel to the direction of the wave?
Transverse waves are waves in which the particles move back and forth perpendicular to the direction of the wave. Longitudinal waves are waves in which the particles move back and forth parallel to the direction of the wave. Sound waves are an example of longitudinal waves, where air particles vibrate in the same direction as the wave travels.
