Longitudinal waves are waves that have vibrations along or parallel to their direction of travel.
Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves, waves in a slink, tsunami waves, vibrations in gases, oscillations in springs, internal-water waves, ultra sounds, earthquake P-waves.
Only one example that I have come across. That one is sound wave.
transverse and longitudinal
All sound waves are longitudinal (compression/rarefaction) waves.
Longitudinal waves consist particles in a medium (ex of a medium= air) vibrate back and forth in a parallel direction to the direction of the wave is traveling. Example of a longitudinal wave are sound waves. Boom! Opposite of longitudinal waves would be a transverse wave where instead of particles moving in a parallel direction, transverse waves vibrate in a medium, side by side perpendicular to the direction the wave travels to. Example of a transverse wave is a light wave. Hope this helped =]
Longitudinal waves have all the same properties as transverse waves: speed, frequency, wavelength, and amplitude
sounds waves are longitudinal and mechanical waves
Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves, waves in a slink, tsunami waves, vibrations in gases
Yes longitudinal waves can be diffracted. Example: Light waves.
Sound waves and Primary Earthquake waves are longitudinal.
Sound waves are an example of Longitudinal waves. They are waves in which the particle is displaced in a parallel direction to the direction of velocity of the wave. They are formed by a compression and expansion of particles.sound is an example for longitudinal wavesound waveLongitudinal waves, also known as "l-waves", are waves in which the displacement of the medium is in the same direction as, or the opposite direction to, the direction of travel of the wave.
True.
The jackhammer itself, no.
An example are the longitudinal waves.
No. Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic waves; electroctromagnetic waves are transverse waves.
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
Sound is a longitudinal wave, as is any other mechanical wave. Light is a transversal wave, as all other Elektromagnetic waves.
No, infrared is a type of electromagnetic waves, and those are transverse waves.
A longitudinal wave is a wave of which the disturbance direction is the same direction of the direction of the wave. Waves done in a spring and sound waves are an example. A longitudinal wave: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
