Question

Which of the following is the best definition of longitudinal wave?

In a longitudinal wave, particle displacement is parallel to the direction of wave motion.

In a longitudinal wave, particle displacement is above the direction of wave motion.

In a longitudinal wave, particle displacement is opposite to the direction of wave motion.

In a longitudinal wave, particle displacement is perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.

Answer 1

Sound wave is an example of longitudinal wave

Answer 2

Do u know hw the molecules of air vibrate during sound wave propagate through air medium

Answer 3

Air molecules vibrate along velocity of sound wave in air medium

Answer 4

We should discuss abt transverse wave too
