What type of earthquake wave travels in a push and pull movement?

The Primary or P-wave which is a type of compression or longitudinal wave travels with a push and pull movement.


What is the movement of energy through substance in compression waves?

Energy is transferred through substances in compression waves by causing particles in the material to move back and forth in the direction of wave propagation. This movement results in areas of compression and rarefaction as the wave travels through the medium.


A type of energy that travels as a wave but does not require a medium through which to travel?

Light energy.


What type of wave has a compression and a rarefaction?

A sound wave is a type of wave that has compressions (areas of high pressure) and rarefactions (areas of low pressure) as it travels through a medium such as air, water, or solids.


Which type of energy travels in waves?

An electromagnetic wave, such as light.An electromagnetic wave, such as light.An electromagnetic wave, such as light.An electromagnetic wave, such as light.


What kind of wave does sound make?

Sound is a compression wave. Waves are basically movements in the medium through which energy travels. Compression waves cause the medium to move parallel to the energy movement. Electromagnetic waves, although they do not require a medium, move parallel to the transfer of energy.


What does a compression wave moving outward from its source produce?

A compression wave moving outward from its source produces areas of high pressure and density, leading to the compression of the medium it travels through. This creates regions where particles are closer together, causing the wave to propagate by transferring energy in the direction of its movement.


What type of energy transfer travels in the form of a wave?

compressed air waves


How can you make compression wave using a slinky?

To create a compression wave in a slinky, you can compress one end and release it quickly. The compression will travel through the slinky as a wave, with the coils getting closer together and then returning to their original spacing. This is similar to how energy is transferred through a medium in a compression wave.


What is a compressional wave?

Answer 1: A compressional wave is a wave that is close together and transverse waves are waves that are going the way the wave travels. Answer 2: Basically, it's a sound wave. A compressional wave is a wave that travels back and forth, moving with compression. Scince it is a mechanical wave it must use a medium to travel though. A sound wave is a good example of a compressional wave. A compressional wave is a wave that travels back and forth, moving with compression.
