Question

Which waves cause matter to move back and forth in the same direction

Answer 1

Longitudinal waves I guess

Answer 2

Longitudinal waves include sound waves (vibrations in pressure, particle of displacement, and particle velocity propagated in an elastic medium) and seismic P-waves (created by earthquakes and explosions). In longitudinal waves, the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of the wave. A wave along the length of a stretched Slinky toy, where the distance between coils increases and decreases, is a good visualization. Sound waves in air are longitudinal, pressure waves.

Answer 3

thanks bud

Answer 4

A wave in which the particles move back and forth along the same line, but have no movement up and down is called a Longitudinal wave.
