A longitudinal coast is formed when the coastline runs parallel to the direction of prevailing winds and ocean currents, resulting in the erosion and deposition of sediment in a linear pattern. Sediment is transported along the coast, creating features such as barrier islands, spits, and sand dunes aligned parallel to the shore.

What is another name for a longitudinal a longitudinal wave?

What is an example of a longitudinal wave?
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.
What waves occur when the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave?
Transverse waves occur when the motion of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the wave. When the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave, longitudinal waves are formed. In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium move back and forth parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
