What is the opposite of a compression wave?
The opposite of a compression wave is a rarefaction wave. In a compression wave, particles are close together, whereas in a rarefaction wave, particles are spread out.
A in a transverse wave corresponds to a compression in a longitudinal wave?
In a transverse wave, the crest corresponds to a compression in a longitudinal wave.
What is the spread out portion of a compression wave called?
The spread out portion of a compression wave is called a rarefaction. In a compression wave, the particles are compressed together in the compression phase and spread out in the rarefaction phase.
Where is the compression of a wave located?
The compression of a wave is located where the particles of the medium are closest together.
Is a water wave an example of a transverese wave motion or a compression?
Definitely compression, the reason it may look like transverse-seeing rising waves on a shore-is because the molecules spread out in the transverse direction when they are put under pressure in an axial direction.
What makes a compression wave?
compression wave is a wave like a sound wave

What is sound of wave?
A compression wave.

What type of wave is sound wave?
Sound waves are mechanical, longitudinal waves that require a medium (such as air, water, or solids) to travel through. They propagate by the oscillation and compression of particles in the medium, carrying energy and information through vibrations.
What is the distance from the compression to the next compression in longitudinal wave called?
The distance from one compression to the next compression in a longitudinal wave is called the wavelength. This distance is often used to measure the size of the wave and determine its frequency.
Is a sonic wave a longitudinal wave?
No, a compression-rarefaction wave.
Why the wavelength of wave is reduced in shallow water?
The wavelength of a wave is reduced in shallow water because the wave begins to interact with the sea floor, causing the wave to slow down and compress. This compression shortens the distance between wave crests, resulting in a shorter wavelength in shallow water.
What is a compression wave of gas liquid or solid that is detected by your ear?
A compression wave is not matter, it is a transference of energy.
