Rarefaction occurs only in?
Rarefaction occurs in longitudinal waves when the particles in the medium are spread further apart, resulting in a decrease in density and pressure. This phenomenon is typically observed in sound waves as they travel through a medium.
What of a sound wave is the distance between a compression or rarefaction and the next compression or rarefaction?
The wavelength of a sound wave is the distance between a compression (high pressure) or rarefaction (low pressure) and the next compression or rarefaction. It is the physical length of one cycle of the wave and is typically measured in meters.
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.
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.
What is compression and a rarefaction in a longitudinal wave?
When you have the complete compression and rarefaction of a longitudinal wave, that is one complete wave.
Rarefaction occurs only in?
Rarefaction occurs in longitudinal waves when the particles in the medium are spread further apart, resulting in a decrease in density and pressure. This phenomenon is typically observed in sound waves as they travel through a medium.
Does Rarefaction refer to the compression of air molecules?
No, rarefaction is the reduction in density of a gas or fluid, while compression refers to the increase in density. Rarefaction occurs when particles are spread apart, leading to a decrease in pressure and density.
What is the opposite of rarefaction?
compression
Molecules are farther apart in a rarefaction reflection compression or refraction?
Rarefaction.
What of a sound wave is the distance between a compression or rarefaction and the next compression or rarefaction?
The wavelength of a sound wave is the distance between a compression (high pressure) or rarefaction (low pressure) and the next compression or rarefaction. It is the physical length of one cycle of the wave and is typically measured in meters.
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.
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.
What is the area of compression and rarefaction?
Compression is a Pushing Force whereas Rarefaction is a Pulling Force[Compression is the point when the most force is being applied to a molecule&Rarefaction is the point when the least force is applied].Compression happens when particles are forced/pressed together.Rarefaction is just the opposite,it occurs when particles are given extra space&allowed to expand.Compression&Rarefaction are Effects the wave causes.If you look at any normal visual representation of a Sound Wave,the humps above the middle line are called Compressions,the humps below are called Rarefactions.
A region of spread out particles ina compressional wave is called?
I believe you are referring to rarefaction. The "trough" of a compression / rarefaction wave is called rarefaction.
What is compression and a rarefaction in a longitudinal wave?
When you have the complete compression and rarefaction of a longitudinal wave, that is one complete wave.
What is the distances between compression and rarefaction?
wavelength
What is the dense region of a compression wave?
rarefaction
