Longitudinal waves are produced by particles oscillating back and forth in the same direction as the wave's propagation. Examples include sound waves in air or water waves in the ocean.
Longitudinal waves move the particles of the medium in the same direction in which the waves are traveling. This produces a back-and-forth motion of the particles parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves and seismic waves.
Longitudinal waves are the result of earthquakes, and are also known as Primary, or P-Waves. Longitudinal waves are faster than Transverse (Secondary) Waves. A diagram of a Longitudinal wave is a straight line, with a denser area where the wave itself is travelling.
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, where the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. Light waves, on the other hand, are transverse waves, where the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.
Light waves are transverse waves. This means that the oscillation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of energy propagation.
Longitudinal waves are mechanical waves in which the particles of the medium vibrate in the same direction as the wave's energy propagation. Examples of longitudinal waves include sound waves and seismic waves.

A jackhammer produces mechanical waves, specifically longitudinal waves, as it transfers energy through compressions and rarefactions in the ground. These waves travel through the material, causing vibrations that help break up the surface.
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
No Sound waves are longitudinal. Being longitudinal they cannot be POLARISED.
Yes, a jackhammer produces longitudinal waves as it transmits vibrations through the material it is breaking by compressing and expanding material particles along the direction of the wave's propagation.
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.

All sound waves are longitudinal (compression/rarefaction) waves.
Sound waves are longitudinal waves, where the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave. Light waves, on the other hand, are transverse waves, where the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.
Light waves are transverse waves. This means that the oscillation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of energy propagation.
