Want this question answered?
it is compressional wave. Compressional waves are a type of sound wave.
The type of wave in which the particles in the medium experience forces parallel to the wave's direction is the longitudinal wave. It is a mechanical wave that travels through a series of compressions and rarefactions.
The less dense areas created as a sound wave propagates are called rarefactions.
As sound is an example of a longitudinal wave, sound has a series of compressions and rarefactions.To explain a bit more, compressions are the squeezes of the wave while rarefactions are the stretches of the wave.
Rarefactions decompressions travel in the same direction, because sound are longitudinal waves.

A longitudinal wave is a wave in which the particles of the wave vibrate/oscillate in the same direction as the direction of propagation of the wave.They are formed by alternate compressions and rarefactions in the wave medium. There is an increase in pressure at the compressions and a decrease in pressure at the rarefactions. Hence, they are also called pressure.A sound wave is an example of a longitudinal wave.(check the related link for an illustration)
The characteristics of a sound wave is the Amplitude, Frequency, Wavelength, time period, and velocity. The sound wave itself is a longitudinal wave that shows the rarefactions and compressions of a sound wave.
With the help of compressions and rarefactions longitudinal waves get propagated.
