The disturbance that occurs as longitudional waves travel through a medium can be described as a series of oscillations and refractions. destructions and constructions. propagations and compressions. rarefactions and compressions

OpenStudy (ghazi):

i guess it's propagation and compression ...in case of longitudinal waves

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no. a longitudinal wave always proceeds with rarefactions and compressions. so that's the answer. |dw:1343801239692:dw| where R - rarefactions and C - compressions

OpenStudy (ghazi):

yea agreed i was to say the same ..i was in haste so made a mistake..
