A sound wave looks like lots of zig zags up and down if they are louder they are taller and if they are high pitched they are quite close!
When a sound wave hits an object, it causes the object to vibrate at the same frequency as the sound wave. This can sometimes be seen as the object physically moving, especially if the sound wave has a high intensity or frequency.
The frequency of a sound wave will determine the pitch (or note).
A high pitch sound wave would have a higher frequency, with closely packed wave crests. This would appear as waves that are more tightly compressed together in a graphical representation.
A longitudinal wave is a type of wave where the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of wave propagation. A common example is a sound wave, where the vibration of air molecules creates compressions and rarefactions that travel through the air.
The propagation of a longitudinal wave creates sound that moves in the same direction as the wave, like a slinky being pushed and pulled. In contrast, a transverse wave creates sound that moves perpendicular to the wave, like a rope being shaken side to side.
they look like your mommy
like a guitar sound!!!
It differs depending on who is saying it.
a flood is a big huge big wave that floods the place
The amplitude of a sound wave is a measure of its loudness. A loud sound will have a higher amplitude.

a wave although you cannot photograph a sound wave. you can photograph the affects of a sound wave. if you put an extremely large amp and subwoofer near a pond; you sould witness ripples in the water. this is sound at work! it would appear as very small waves.
An echo is a reflected sound wave, so in real life it doesn't look like anything. However, on a sonograph, it would look very similar to the original sound wave form, just quieter and perhaps a bit distorted depending upon the reflecting surface.
compression wave is a wave like a sound wave

Bass notes are low in frequency, and since the speed of sound is a constant, then the wavelength will be long. Therefore, the sound wave will look "stretched out" due to the long wavelength and probably tall as bass sounds tend to be larger in amplitude.
