Which of the following is the longitudinal wave
Sound waves
Waves on plucked string
water waves
Light waves
Wave on a plucked string is stationary wave. Light waves are EM waves. Water waves are transverse as well as longitudinal.
Property of Longitudinal Waves -
All particle in compression phase are in phase.
All particle in rarefaction phase are in phase.
Distance between two consecutive compression or rarefaction is equal to wavelength of the wave.
