A sound wave is logitudinal because the motion of the medium (air) travels in the same direction as the wave (back and forth).
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.
A sound wave's pitch is determined by its frequency; that is its cycles per unit of time. The sound wave's intensity or volume is determined by its amplitude; the maximum crest of a sound wave.
Nothing. That IS how a sound wave is propagated.
A sound wave is continuous for as long as the sound vibrations are being made at its source.
The type of sound waves usually felt rather than heard are those with frequencies of less than 20 Hz.
Every type of sound wave produced is a longitudinal wave.

Sound travels in water as a longitudinal wave.
Sound propagates through a longitudinal wave, a type of mechanical wave.
A flute wave is a type of sound wave, specifically a longitudinal wave. When a flutist plays a note, it creates a series of compressions and rarefactions in the air, resulting in a sound wave that travels through the air to reach our ears.
The type of wave in which amplitude changes to create sound is a sound wave. Amplitude is the measure of the changes within the wave.
Yes, a longitudinal wave can be a sound wave. Sound waves are a type of longitudinal wave that travel through a medium by compressing and expanding the particles in the medium in the direction of the wave's motion.
No, sound is not a type of electromagnetic wave. Sound is actually a mechanical wave that requires a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through, while electromagnetic waves like light do not require a medium and can travel through a vacuum.
A sound wave is a longitudinal mechanical wave, meaning the particles in the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. This distinguishes it from a transverse wave, where the particles move perpendicular to the wave propagation.
Sound waves are pressure waves.
