A difference between sound waves and seismic waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves that travel through mediums such as air, while seismic waves are a combination of both longitudinal (P-waves) and transverse (S-waves) waves that travel through the Earth’s interior. Seismic waves are typically caused by geological events like earthquakes, while sound waves are produced by vibrating sources like speakers or instruments.
What is the different between transverse wave and longitudinal wave?
The vibration of the Longitudinal wave is parallel to the wave direction and the vibration is perpendicular to the direction in the transverse wave.
Do longitudinal waves travel the fastest?
No, longitudinal waves do not necessarily travel the fastest. The speed of a wave depends on the medium through which it is traveling. In some mediums, longitudinal waves may travel faster than other types of waves, while in others they may not.
Is polarization possible for longitudinal waves?
polarization is not possible for longitudinal waves in electromagnetic waves electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to each other and these two are perpendicular to direction of propagation so by using vertical or horizantal slits it is possible to polarize the electromagnetic waves where as in longitudinal waves the particles vibration is parllel to the direction of propagation so it is not possible to polarize the longitudinal waves
What kind of wave are sound waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves; they travel from side to side, not up and down like transverse waves.
What is the difference between waves made by the breeze and waves made by a speedboat?
sound are longitudinal waves while water waves are transverse waves
What is difference between longitudinal and transverse waves?
The vibration of the Longitudinal wave is parallel to the wave direction and the vibration is perpendicular to the direction in the transverse wave.

What are the bunched up parts in longitudinal waves called?
The bunched up parts in longitudinal waves are called compressions. These are regions where the particles of the medium are crowded together.
How do light waves propagate through a medium, and what is the difference between transverse and longitudinal light waves?
Light waves propagate through a medium by oscillating electric and magnetic fields. Transverse light waves vibrate perpendicular to the direction of propagation, while longitudinal waves vibrate parallel to the direction of propagation.
How do light waves propagate through a medium, and what is the difference between their longitudinal and transverse characteristics?
Light waves propagate through a medium by oscillating electric and magnetic fields. Longitudinal waves have vibrations parallel to the direction of propagation, while transverse waves have vibrations perpendicular to the direction of propagation.
Are p waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
In longitudinal waves in a spring the parts where the coils are spread out are called?
rarefactions
What are the differences between transverse and longitudinal waves?
Transverse waves move perpendicular to the direction of the wave, while longitudinal waves move parallel to the direction of the wave.
In longitudinal waves in a spring the parts where the coils are spread out are called what?
rarefactions
Are sound waves longitudinal in solids?
No Sound waves are longitudinal. Being longitudinal they cannot be POLARISED.
How do sound waves travel through a medium, and what is the difference between transverse and longitudinal sound waves?
Sound waves travel through a medium by causing particles in the medium to vibrate back and forth. Transverse sound waves move particles perpendicular to the direction of the wave, while longitudinal sound waves move particles parallel to the direction of the wave.
