Why Sound waves are mechanical waves?
Sound waves are mechanical waves because they require a medium for their propagation .They are also called longitudinal mechanics because they vibrate in the direction of propagation of wave and and produces compression and vibrations like that of longitudinal waves
Are light waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Longitudinal
Are sound waves transverse waves while light waves are longitudinal waves or are all sound waves and light waves longitudinal waves?
Light waves are transverse.Sound waves may be transverse or longitudinal. Sound in gases can only be longitudinal.
Are em waves longitudinal are transverse?
EM waves are both Transverse and Longitudinal.
Example of longitudinal wave?
Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves, waves in a slink, tsunami waves, vibrations in gases

Are p waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
Are light waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Longitudinal
What type of waves do you think the jack hammer produces in the ground?
i think it makes longitudinal wave
Are sound waves transverse waves while light waves are longitudinal waves or are all sound waves and light waves longitudinal waves?
Light waves are transverse.Sound waves may be transverse or longitudinal. Sound in gases can only be longitudinal.
Are sound waves longitudinal in solids?
No Sound waves are longitudinal. Being longitudinal they cannot be POLARISED.
Are P-waves and S-waves transverse or longitudinal waves?
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
What are two types of mechanical waves?
transverse and longitudinal
Are soundwaves longitudinal waves?
longitudinal wave
How are longitudinal waves used in communication?
All sound waves are longitudinal (compression/rarefaction) waves.
Are em waves longitudinal are transverse?
EM waves are both Transverse and Longitudinal.
Example of longitudinal wave?
