Question

SECTION-
State any six characteristics of longitudinal waves.
​

Answer 1

Longitudinal waves are waves in which the displacement of the medium is in the same direction as, or the opposite direction to, the direction of propagation of the wave. Mechanical longitudinal waves are also called compressional or compression waves, because they produce compression and rarefaction when traveling through a medium, and pressure waves, because they produce increases and decreases in pressure.

Hope this will help you ☺

Answer 2

Hi mate here is ur query..

________________

LONGITUDINAL WAVES

Longitudinal waves are those waves in which the particles of the medium move parallel to the propagation of the wave. For example, sound waves are transverse waves.Sound needs a medium to travel.

Characteristics

A longitudinal waves is a wave where the movement of the medium is in the same direction as the wave.

This causes particles to move left and right inducing other particles to vibrate.

The primary wave in the earthquake is the longitudinal waves.

The longitudinal waves are one dimension.
