Question

The angle between the direction of vibration of particles and the direction of propagation of a longitudinal wave is ____ degrees.

hintHint:

Longitudinal waves are parallel waves

The correct answer is: 0


    • Longitudinal waves cause the particles of the medium to move parallel to the direction of the wave propagation.
    • So, the angle between the direction of wave propagation in longitudinal waves and the vibrating particles is 0°.
