The crest of a transverse wave similar to what on a longitudinal wave?
The crest of a transverse wave corresponds to the compression region in a longitudinal wave. Both represent the highest point of displacement or disturbance in their respective wave types.
Which part of sound wave has molecules that are tightly packed together?
The compression or crest of a sound wave has molecules that are tightly packed together, which leads to higher pressure and increased density compared to the rarefaction part of the wave.
The part of a wave where molecules are pressed close together is under?
The part of a wave where molecules are pressed close together is called compression. This is an area of high pressure in the wave where the particles are densely packed.
Are compression waves in an electromagnetic spectrum?
1. A compression wave is when the particles in a wave are close together and not spread out. 2. A compression wave is where the pressure in the waves is higher than atmospheric pressure in that particular area where the particles come together.
Is Compression the bunching up of particles in a sound wave?
Yes, compression in a sound wave refers to the region where particles are closely packed together due to the wave's energy. As the wave travels through a medium, it causes alternating areas of compression and rarefaction, where particles are more spread out. This process creates the varying pressure that allows sound to propagate through the medium.
What makes a compression wave?
compression wave is a wave like a sound wave
What is the opposite of a compression wave?
The opposite of a compression wave is a rarefaction wave. In a compression wave, particles are close together, whereas in a rarefaction wave, particles are spread out.
A in a transverse wave corresponds to a compression in a longitudinal wave?
In a transverse wave, the crest corresponds to a compression in a longitudinal wave.
What is the spread out portion of a compression wave called?
The spread out portion of a compression wave is called a rarefaction. In a compression wave, the particles are compressed together in the compression phase and spread out in the rarefaction phase.
What is sound of wave?
A compression wave.
Where is the compression of a wave located?
The compression of a wave is located where the particles of the medium are closest together.
What is the distance from the compression to the next compression in longitudinal wave called?
The distance from one compression to the next compression in a longitudinal wave is called the wavelength. This distance is often used to measure the size of the wave and determine its frequency.
Is a sonic wave a longitudinal wave?
No, a compression-rarefaction wave.
What is a compression wave of gas liquid or solid that is detected by your ear?
A compression wave is not matter, it is a transference of energy.
Is the distance from one compression to the next compression is the amplitude of a longitudinal dinal wave?
No, the distance between one compression and the next compression in a longitudinal wave is its wavelength, not its amplitude. The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of a particle from its rest position as the wave passes through it.
Is a compression wave a sound wave?
yes a sound wave is a Compressional wave
What is wave in which matter moves in the same direction as the wave?
Compression wave
