Yes
How does a compressional wave moves?
for compressional waves, think of a spring. It moves by compressing and contracting. For sinusoidal waves, think of waves on the beach.

Is a sound wave compressional or transverse?
Compressional
Is a compressional wave a sound wave?

How does longitudinal wave travel?
Longitudinal waves are waves that have the same direction of vibration along their direction of travel, which means that the vibration of the medium (particle) is in the same direction or opposite direction as the motion of the wave. Mechanical longitudinal waves have been also referred to as compressional waves or compression waves
What is found in a compressional wave?

Are water waves compressional waves?
Compressional waves are waves that produce compression and rarefaction when traveling through a medium. Water waves are not considered as compressional waves.
Are sound waves transverse waves or compressional waves Why?
Compressional, gasses can be compressed but cannot be wiggled side to side.
What is compressional stress?
Compressional stress is the stress produced by two tectonic plates moving towards each other.
