A rainbow is made of different wavelengths (different colors) of light waves, and light waves are usually considered transverse waves.
In a transverse wave, the crest corresponds to a compression in a longitudinal 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.
A transverse wave is one where the oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, like a wave on a string. A compression wave, or longitudinal wave, is where the oscillations are parallel to the direction of wave propagation, like sound waves in air.
A transverse wave displaces particles perpendicular to the wave's direction of propagation, like ocean waves. A compression wave displaces particles parallel to the wave's direction of propagation, like sound waves.
In a compressional wave, the density of the medium varies periodically as the wave travels through it. This variation corresponds to the peaks and troughs in a transverse wave, where the denser regions represent the peaks of compression and the less dense regions represent the troughs of rarefaction. However, in a compressional wave, this density variation occurs in the same direction as the wave propagation, whereas in a transverse wave it occurs perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.

compression
It is a tranverse wave. hope this helps
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.

Yes, they are exactly analogous and corresponding.

In a transverse wave, the crest of the wave corresponds to the compression of a longitudinal wave, while the trough of the transverse wave corresponds to the rarefaction of a longitudinal wave. Both waves exhibit oscillation or vibration, but the direction in which the particles move is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation in a transverse wave, while it is parallel in a longitudinal wave.
