Mechanical longitudinal waves are also called compressional waves or compression waves, because they produce compression and rarefaction when traveling through a medium. The other main type of wave is the transverse wave, in which the displacements of the medium are at right angles to the direction of propagation.n longitudinal waves, the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of the wave. A wave along the length of a stretched Slinky toy, where the distance between coils increases and decreases, is a good visualization. Sound waves in air are longitudinal, pressure waves.
light waves or electromagnetic waves are transverse and sound waves are longitudinal. Electromagnetic waves can be both transverse and longitudinal waves. Transverse waves are like ocean waves. They move the medium perpendicular to the medium which is the substance the wave is traveling on.Longitudinal waves are like a slinky.They compress and rarefact (The coils get close and move away).m waves are transverse in nature. the electric and magnetic field vectors are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of waves. Electromagnetic waves in pure vacuum ar â¦ e transverse, but in a plasma (ionized gas) electromagnetic waves can occur as transverse or longitudinal.
