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.
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 parts of a transverse wave are like compression and rarefaction in a wave moving through a slinky?
In a transverse wave, the peak and trough are like compression and rarefaction in a wave moving through a slinky. The peak is where the particles are closest together, similar to compression in a slinky, while the trough is where the particles are farthest apart, akin to rarefaction in a slinky.

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 types of wave does rarefaction and compression?
this kind of wave that includes compressional and rarefaction is called a longitudinal wave.
Is a sonic wave a longitudinal wave?
No, a compression-rarefaction wave.
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.
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 the dense region of a compression wave?
rarefaction
What are the two different parts of a wave?
compression and rarefaction
What wave has compression and rare fraction?
A longitudinal wave exhibits compression and rarefaction. In this type of wave, particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of wave propagation, resulting in areas where particles are pushed together (compression) and areas where they are spread apart (rarefaction). Sound waves in air are a common example of longitudinal waves displaying these characteristics.
What parts of a transverse wave are like compression and rarefaction in a wave moving through a slinky?
In a transverse wave, the peak and trough are like compression and rarefaction in a wave moving through a slinky. The peak is where the particles are closest together, similar to compression in a slinky, while the trough is where the particles are farthest apart, akin to rarefaction in a slinky.
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.
