Longitudinal waves
  • 1 answers

Meghna Thapar 4 years, 7 months ago

  • Sound  waves  are longitudinal  waves as the particles  of  the  medium  through  which  the  wave propagates vibrate in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of waves.In longitudinal waves, the individual particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the disturbance. The particles do not move from one place to another but they simply oscillate back and forth about their position of rest. This is exactly how a sound wave propagates, hence sound waves are longitudinal waves.
