What is the part of a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread apart?
A longitudinal wave can go through solids, liquids, and gases.A transversal wave will usually only go through solids. (Electromagnetic waves, however, can also go through empty space.)
Are microwave wave longitudinal or transverse?
Microwaves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are transverse waves in that the displacement is perpendicular to the direction of travel.
Part of a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread apart are called a?
Rarefaction is the part of a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread apart.
In this type of wave wave particles of the medium?
In a longitudinal wave, particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. This causes the particles to compress and rarefy in a repeating pattern, creating areas of high pressure (compression) and low pressure (rarefaction) as the wave travels through the medium. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves.
What part of the longitudinal wave hits the eardrum?
The compressions and rarefactions of the longitudinal wave hit the eardrum. The compressions correspond to the increased air pressure while the rarefactions correspond to the decreased air pressure, together creating the sound wave that reaches the eardrum.
Are ultraviolet waves transverse or longitudinal waves?
Ultraviolet waves are part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum which all travel as transverse waves.
What is a Longitudinal wave caused by vibration?
Longitudinal waves are waves that are produced by disturbance that is parallel to that of the direction of wave or oscillations produced along the path of the wave. The longitudinal waves consist of areas of comressions, the center of which is in a crest, and areas of rarefactions, the center of which is in a trough. Crest in a transverse wave is the part of wave at the maximum above the isoelectric line (midline) and trough is the minimum below the isoelectric line. The example of longitudinal waves is sound waves.
Are microwaves longitudinal or transverse?
Microwaves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are therefore transverse waves.

What body part has the most rhythm?
The eardrums.
Are microwave wave longitudinal or transverse?
Microwaves are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are transverse waves in that the displacement is perpendicular to the direction of travel.
What is the part of the wave where the particles are closest together?
Assuming that you are referring to longitudinal waves, the area where particles are closest together would be called the "compression" area. The "rarefaction" is the opposite; this is where the medium is least dense. Sound is a good example of longitudinal waves. If you look closely at a speaker cone, you be able to see that they seem to move in and out very rapidly. This is what "pushes" and "pulls" the air molecules and creates compressions and rarefactions which our ears receive and transmit as a neural impulse to our brain, allowing us to hear. Although transverse and longitudinal waves are both different types of waves, they are dissimilar (particles in a transverse wave move perpendicular to the motion of the wave (up and down) where as particles in a longitudinal wave move in the direction the wave is traveling).
Part of a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread apart are called a?
Rarefaction is the part of a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread apart.
Where does rarefaction occur?
When something vibrates, like a loudspeaker, it compresses the air and increases the pressure of the air when it moves out. When the loudspeaker moves in it creates a partial vacum and a decrease in air pressure. The increase/decrease in air pressure is propagated thru the air (or any medium),as a longitudinal wave, by pushing the air in front of it. The part of the cycle which produces the decrease in pressure is called a "rarefacation" of the air.
In this type of wave wave particles of the medium?
In a longitudinal wave, particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. This causes the particles to compress and rarefy in a repeating pattern, creating areas of high pressure (compression) and low pressure (rarefaction) as the wave travels through the medium. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves.
What part of the longitudinal wave hits the eardrum?
The compressions and rarefactions of the longitudinal wave hit the eardrum. The compressions correspond to the increased air pressure while the rarefactions correspond to the decreased air pressure, together creating the sound wave that reaches the eardrum.
What is the part of the longitudinal wave where the particles are close together called?
Compression is the part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are crowded together. Rarefaction is the part where the particles are spread apart.
