Thanks for stopping by. Sound waves are a type of longitudinal mechanical waves. Acoustic waves, like mechanical waves, propagate in a material medium such as water, air, etc., etc. Sound waves, however, have the characteristic of transporting energy in the form of pressure variations. Not everyone knows that sound waves are also important in Medicine: ultrasound (high-frequency sound waves) are used in echography and other diagnostic techniques. !PIZZA
