What is the disturbance that travels through a medium as a compressional wave called?
longitudinal wave. Example: Sound wave
What is the shock wave called if a jet flies faster than the speed of sound?
The shock wave is called SONIC BOOM.
Wave that moves back and forth?
True. The up-down type of wave is called a "transverse wave". Light, for example, is this kind of wave. Sound, however, is a different kind of wave. It is the back-forth type, called "longitudinal", or "compression" waves.

the top of a sound wave is a crest
What are the sound wave forms?
The waves in which sound appears is called wave form of sound.
What is a sound wave of a high pressure called?
A sound wave with high sound pressure (amplitude) or high sound particle displacement (amplitude) is a sound wave that has a high loudness.
What are the objects called that allow sound to travel through them?
Sound is a pressure wave. Objects that "allow" sound to travel through them could be called wave guides.

When sound travels is transferred by the sound wave?
It is called frequency
Area of a sound wave where particles are less dense?
The area of a sound wave where particles are less dense is called a rarefaction. It is the diminution in the density of a sound wave.
