What in a transverse wave corresponds to a compression in a longitudnal wave?

In a transverse wave, the peak corresponds to a compression in a longitudinal wave. Both represent the regions of maximum energy transfer and particle displacement along their respective wave types.


Are gamma waves transverse?

Yes it is because it is in the electromagnetic spectrum and the other wave type longitudnal is for sound waves

How do you find the wavelength of a longitudnal wave?

By measuring the distance between compression


What do transverse waves and longitudnal waves have in common?

Transverse waves and longitudinal waves are both types of mechanical waves. They both transfer energy through a medium, but their motion and displacement of particles in the medium differ. In transverse waves, particles move perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, while in longitudinal waves, particles move parallel to the direction of wave propagation.
