   There are two types of waves, transverse and longitudinal (sometimes called pressure or compression waves). When people think of waves, they often think of transverse waves. Click each video to see an example and explanation of both types.

   When planes break the sound barrier they also create something called a sonic boom. This is a loud noise like an explosion that is generated from a number of sound waves that are forced together as the plane is now traveling faster than sound.

   Dec 28, 2020 · Just as with any other wave, sound waves are created by an initial disturbance or vibration. A struck tuning fork, for example, vibrates at a specific frequency. As it moves, it bumps into the air molecules around it, periodically compressing them.

   How are waves created?

   • Waves are created when energy is transferred through a medium like water or air. There are two types of waves, transverse and longitudinal (sometimes called pressure or compression waves). When people think of waves, they often think of transverse waves. Click each video to see an example and explanation of both types.

   What is a sound wave?

   • Sound waves are longitudinal waves that travel through a medium like air or water. When we think about sound, we often think about how loud it is (amplitude, or intensity) and its pitch (frequency). What is sound? What are the parts of a sound wave?

   How does a sound wave propagate?

   • Sound waves are longitudinal waves. When a sound wave propagates through a medium, such as air, it does so by causing the air molecules to vibrate, which causes changes in air pressure, resulting in compressions (regions of high pressure) and rarefactions (regions of low pressure) in the air as the wave travels.

   What is a sound barrier in physics?

   • sound barrier, sharp rise in aerodynamic drag that occurs as an aircraft approaches the speed of sound and that was formerly an obstacle to supersonic flight. If an aircraft flies at somewhat less than sonic speed, the pressure waves (sound waves) it creates outspeed their sources and spread out ahead of it.

   What is the difference between water waves and sound waves?

   • Water waves shake energy over the surface of the sea, while sound waves thump energy through the body of the air. Sound waves are compression waves. They're also called longitudinal waves because the air vibrates along the same direction as the wave travels. Animation of a transverse wave (how light and water waves travel).
