intensity
Nope, longitudinal.
longitudinal wave
Light waves travel faster than sound waves.
When you listen to the radio, you are hearing sound, which has no resemblance to light, radio waves, or x-rays. However, the sounds you hear are created in the radio receiver, using information that was carried to your location by means of radio waves.
Because the vibrations of both the waves travel parallel to the direction of propagation of waves. For eg: both the waves have amplitude, frequency etc.
That varies, depending on what causes the sound waves.
Sound waves are generated when an object vibrates, causing air molecules to vibrate in a pattern that travels as a wave. These vibrating air molecules transfer the energy of the sound wave from the source to our ears, where it is perceived as sound.
Sound Waves
Sound waves are produced by vibrations, which causes disturbances in the surrounding medium .These disturbances are transferred from the source in the form of longitudinal waves.
When a source of energy causes a medium to vibrate, it creates sound waves. Sound waves are mechanical waves that travel through a medium by causing the particles of the medium to vibrate and transfer energy in the form of sound.
That varies, depending on the type of waves - e.g., water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, etc.
Sound waves are produced due to the vibrations of an object .Sound waves are produced by vibration. Everything on this earth causes some sort of vibration. When something vibrates it produces a sound.
Movement causes the air to vibrate. This creates sound waves.
Pressure waves in the air.

When a guitar string is plucked, it vibrates. The vibration of the string causes pressure waves in the air. The pressure waves are called "sound".
