No, radio waves are transverse waves, meaning the oscillation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal waves have oscillations parallel to the direction of wave motion.
A compression wave is another name for a longitudinal wave.
Yes, a sound wave is a longitudinal wave.
Yes, sound is a longitudinal wave.
No, AM radio waves are an example of transverse waves. Longitudinal waves have the oscillation of particles in the direction of wave propagation, while transverse waves have the oscillation of particles perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
This type of wave is called a longitudinal wave. In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave propagation. Sound waves are an example of longitudinal waves.
