What is compression and a rarefaction in a longitudinal wave?
When you have the complete compression and rarefaction of a longitudinal wave, that is one complete wave.
Rarefaction occurs only in?
Rarefaction only occurs in a longitudinal wave. Rarefaction is the reduction of the density of a medium. It is the opposite of compression.
What do the combination of a compression and a rarefaction create?
They form a compression wave.
What of a sound wave is the distance between a compression or rarefaction and the next compression or rarefaction?
It is equal to wavelength.
A trough in a transverse wave corresponds to a in a longitudinal wave?
If you are looking for a true/false answer, it's false.

What types of wave does rarefaction and compression?
this kind of wave that includes compressional and rarefaction is called a longitudinal wave.
Is a sonic wave a longitudinal wave?
No, a compression-rarefaction wave.
What do the combination of a compression and a rarefaction create?
They form a compression wave.
What is the dense region of a compression wave?
rarefaction
What of a sound wave is the distance between a compression or rarefaction and the next compression or rarefaction?
It is equal to wavelength.
A region of spread out particles ina compressional wave is called?
I believe you are referring to rarefaction. The "trough" of a compression / rarefaction wave is called rarefaction.
A trough in a transverse wave corresponds to a in a longitudinal wave?
If you are looking for a true/false answer, it's false.
What are the two different parts of a wave?
compression and rarefaction
What is the distances between compression and rarefaction of longitudinal wave?
Compression is the areas where the particles are closer together. Rarefaction is the areas where the particles are stretched apart.
What is a part of a compressional wave where the particles are far apart?
A rarefaction., in contrast to a compression.
