Yes, there is another name for longitudinal waves which is 'Elastic Waves'. These waves have the same direction of vibration, as their direction of travel. These waves consist of Compressions and Rarefractions. Mechanically they are also called as Compression waves.
compressions and rarefractions
Sunlight and radiowaves are examples of electromagnetic waves, which are transverse mechanical waves. Sound waves are compression waves.
No
longitudinal wave formed due to compressions and rarefractions of media through which sound is propogating
Primary waves / compression waves / longitudinal waves.
Compression Waves
Compression waves
Yes
No. surface waves on the surface of water is transverse in nature. It has crests and troughs. Compression and rarefaction will be in longitudinal wave. example sound waves.
yes
