Rarefactions are found in longitudinal waves, which are characterized by the oscillation of particles parallel to the direction of wave propagation. In a longitudinal wave, rarefactions are regions of decreased particle density or pressure.
A longitudinal wave contains rarefactions, which are regions of low pressure or low density in the wave where particles are spread out. These waves are characterized by the particles of the medium oscillating back and forth in the same direction as the wave is traveling. Sound waves are an example of longitudinal waves.
Longitudinal wave.
A sound wave contains compressions (areas of high pressure) and rarefactions (areas of low pressure). These variations in pressure create the wave pattern that carries sound energy through a medium, such as air or water.
The wavelength of a compressional wave is the distance between two adjacent compressions or rarefactions.
In rarefactions, particles in a medium become less dense, causing a decrease in pressure and creating regions of lower pressure in the wave. This leads to the spreading out of the wave and a decrease in the amplitude of the wave.

Yes, a compressional wave does contain rarefactions. In a compressional wave, particles are squeezed together (compression) and subsequently spread apart (rarefaction), resulting in alternating regions of high and low pressure as the wave travels through a medium.
The less dense areas created as a sound wave propagates are called rarefactions.
The wavelength of a longitudinal wave is the distance between two consecutive compressions or rarefactions in the wave.
rarefactions, which are regions of high and low pressure respectively. As the wave travels through a medium, these compressions and rarefactions propagate in a wave pattern, carrying energy from one point to another.
In a sound wave, compressions and rarefactions are regions of high pressure and low pressure respectively. They travel in the same direction as the wave itself. As the wave propagates, compressions and rarefactions move through the medium in the same direction, creating the oscillating pattern of high and low pressure that we perceive as sound.
