Sound waves are produced by vibrations of particle of the media along the direction of propagation. The vibration along the direction of propagation is wave is the proof that sound is a longitudinal wave

Sound waves are longitudinal waves which need a material medium to travel. Sound waves that we hear are actually just compressions and rarefactions of air particles, meaning the air particles move closer together for a time period then spread apart farther then they normally would. Since in space there is vacuum and no material for sounds to travel we cannot hear the sound from sun.

priyanshukumar5: that is right
Anonymous: thanks.you can also think of a tuning fork which is used to produce sound for laboratory experiments.the waves produced are longitudinal.
priyanshukumar5: ok thanks

If you observe the waves produced by a tuning fork when it is stroke, you can find that the sound waves produced have straight lines of compressions and rarefactions. From this, you can prove that sound waves are longitudinal waves. If you find it useful mark it as brainliest friend please :-)

Thejasswini: thanks
