What else can I help you with?
What is it called when waves are farther apart?
When waves are farther apart, it is referred to as having a longer wavelength.
What does a rarefraction mean?
A rarefaction is a decrease in density or pressure in a medium, typically related to the spreading out of waves. In the context of sound waves, rarefaction is the region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are farther apart.
What types of waves pushes particles together and spreads them apart as it moves?
Longitudinal waves push particles together by compressing them and spread them apart by rarefying. Sound waves are an example of longitudinal waves.
Which is not a normal property of waves?
frequency
Which waves move in compressional motion?
Compressional waves, also known as longitudinal waves, move in a back-and-forth motion parallel to the direction of wave propagation. These waves cause particles in the medium to move closer together and farther apart as the wave passes through. Examples include sound waves and seismic waves.

How do seismographs approximate the location o an epicenter?
The farther apart the arrival times of the different waves are, the farther away the earthquake is. :)

What are areas of compression and rarefraction and in which type of wave do they apply?
Compression is the area of high pressure, where particles are closer together, while rarefaction is the area of low pressure, where particles are farther apart. These terms apply to all types of waves, including sound waves and seismic waves.
Waves are known to travel faster through solids than they do through gases?

What kinds of waves are sound waves?
sound waves are compression waves, or longitudinal waves. sounds that we hear are actually just compressions and rarefactions of air particles, meaning the air particles move closer together for a time period then spread apart farther then they normally would rarefaction)

When particles or waves are spread apart in a longitudal wave they are called?
wavelength
The two types of regions that make up compressional waves are?
The two types of regions that make up compressional waves are compressions, where particles are closely packed together, and rarefactions, where particles are spread farther apart. Compressions are regions of high pressure and density, while rarefactions are regions of low pressure and density.
