explanation

Answer 2

Answer;

Compressions

Rarefactions

Explanations;

• A wave is a transmission of a disturbance from one point to another, and involve the transfer of energy from the source to another point.
• Waves may be classified as longitudinal waves or transverse wave depending on the vibration of particles relative to the wave motion or mechanical and electromagnetic waves based on the material medium of transmission.
• Sound waves are examples of longitudinal waves that are mechanical waves since they require material medium for transmission. Longitudinal waves involves transmission of waves such that the vibration of particles is parallel to the wave motion , creating compressions and rarefactions.
