Longitudinal Wave

Image
  Longitudinal Wave Wave propagation is indication or event or the propagation of vibration energy of 3 (three ) the amount of inter-related . Waves can also be called as a form of vibrations that propagate in a medium . On the propagating wave is a wave , not the substance of the intermediary medium . One wave length can be seen by calculating the distance between the valley and the hills ( wave tranversal ) or calculate the distance between the density with one strain ( longitudinal wave ). Rapid propagation of the wave is the distance traveled by the wave in one second . λ =   V .   T λ   = ( lamda) wavelength, the distance traveled in each period waves ( m) V = speed wave propagating in the ( m / s ) T = period of motion in ( s) Wave vibration direction parallel to the longitudinal length of the object called a wave .
