Contents
Key Stage 3
Meaning
A longitudinal wave is a wave in which the vibration is parallel with the direction of the wave.
 |
| A single longitudinal wave passing through a material. |
About Longitudinal Waves
- Sound waves are longitudinal waves.
Key Stage 4
Meaning
A longitudinal wave is a wave in which the direction of vibration is parallel to the direction of travel of the wave.
|
| A single longitudinal wave passing through a material. |
About Longitudinal Waves
There are two longitudinal waves you should know:
- Sound - Waves of compression and rarefaction which travel through matter.
- P-waves - Seismic Waves known as primary waves which are waves of compression through the ground during an earthquake.
