★ Longitudinal Waves :

A wave in which the particle of the medium oscillate (vibrate) to and fro about their mean position in the direction of propagation of the wave is called a longitudinal wave.

Longitudinal waves can be produced in any medium, viz., in solids, liquids and in gases.

→ Example :

(i) Sound waves are longitudinal waves.

(ii) The waves produced in a spring (slinky) by compressing a small portion of it and releasing are longitudinal waves.
