The compression of a wave is located where the particles of the medium are closest together.
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.
In a transverse wave, the crest corresponds to a compression in a longitudinal wave.
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.
The distance from one compression to the next compression in a longitudinal wave is called the wavelength. This distance is often used to measure the size of the wave and determine its frequency.
A compression wave is not matter, it is a transference of energy.
compression wave is a wave like a sound wave

A compression wave.
No, a compression-rarefaction wave.

yes a sound wave is a Compressional wave
No, the distance between one compression and the next compression in a longitudinal wave is its wavelength, not its amplitude. The amplitude of a wave is the maximum displacement of a particle from its rest position as the wave passes through it.
