Rarefraction is part of asound wave where the particles of the medium through which it is travelling are spread out.
Rarefaction.
RAREFRACTION
All sound waves are longitudinal (compression/rarefaction) waves.
the difference is a rarefaction needs vibration i believe i'mnot sure
When something vibrates, like a loudspeaker, it compresses the air and increases the pressure of the air when it moves out. When the loudspeaker moves in it creates a partial vacum and a decrease in air pressure. The increase/decrease in air pressure is propagated thru the air (or any medium),as a longitudinal wave, by pushing the air in front of it. The part of the cycle which produces the decrease in pressure is called a "rarefacation" of the air.
Rarefaction occurs in longitudinal waves when the particles in the medium are spread further apart, resulting in a decrease in density and pressure. This phenomenon is typically observed in sound waves as they travel through a medium.
I believe you are referring to rarefaction. The "trough" of a compression / rarefaction wave is called rarefaction.
There are no perfect rhymes for the word rarefaction.
When a sound wave travels through air you get a succession of compressions and rarefactions
Rarefaction.
this kind of wave that includes compressional and rarefaction is called a longitudinal wave.
compression
A crest is the highest point of a wave, while a rarefaction is the lowest point of a wave. In other words, the crest is the peak of the wave, and the rarefaction is the trough or dip. Together, the crest and rarefaction make up the waveform of a wave.
Rarefaction is the process of decreasing the density of a substance or the reduction of pressure in a medium. In terms of sound waves, rarefaction refers to the region in a longitudinal wave where the particles are spread apart. It is the opposite of compression in a wave.
Why is produced rarefaction and condensation during the sound travelling in the medium?
The wavelength of a sound wave is the distance between a compression (high pressure) or rarefaction (low pressure) and the next compression or rarefaction. It is the physical length of one cycle of the wave and is typically measured in meters.
No, rarefaction is the reduction in density of a gas or fluid, while compression refers to the increase in density. Rarefaction occurs when particles are spread apart, leading to a decrease in pressure and density.
