Nature of Sound Waves. Sound is one kind of longitudinal wave, in which the particles oscillate to and fro in the same direction of wave propagation. Sound waves cannot be transmitted through vacuum. The transmission of sound requires at least a medium, which can be solid, liquid, or gas.

Sound waves in air are longitudinal waves because particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrate parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves These back and forth vibrations are imparted to adjacent neighbors by particle-to-particle interaction.
