Such a wave is called a longitudinal wave.

longitudinal waves.
A longitudinal wave moves matter back and forth in the same direction that the wave is travelling. This type of wave creates compressions and rarefactions in the medium as it moves. Sound waves are examples of longitudinal waves.
The type of wave in which the matter in the wave moves in the same direction as the wave itself is called a longitudinal wave. In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium oscillate back and forth parallel to the direction of energy transport. This is in contrast to a transverse wave, where the particles oscillate perpendicular to the direction of energy transport. Sound waves are a common example of longitudinal waves.
This describes a mechanical wave, where matter oscillates in the same direction as the wave propagation. An example of this is a water wave as the water moves up and down in the direction of the wave.

The waves where matter in the medium moves forward and backward in the same direction are called longitudinal waves. In these waves, particles of the medium oscillate parallel to the direction of energy transfer. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves.
In a longitudinal wave, matter moves forward and backward in the same direction that the wave travels. This is due to the parallel displacement of particles in the direction of wave propagation. Sound waves are a common example of longitudinal waves.
