Why sound wave is called a longitudinal wave?​

Answer 1

$\huge{\underline{\underline{\sf{\pink{Answer:-}}}}}$

The vibration of the medium that travels parallel to the direction of the wave or along in the direction of the wave, is called a longitudinal wave. The direction of particles of the medium vibrates parallel to the direction of the propagation of disturbance. Therefore, a sound wave is called a longitudinal wave.
