What are 2 examples of mechanical waves

1 answer

1. Sound waves: Sound waves are mechanical waves that travel through a medium, such as air, water, or solids, by vibrating the particles of the medium in the direction of the wave's motion.

2. Seismic waves: Seismic waves are mechanical waves that travel through the Earth's crust and can be caused by earthquakes or other disturbances. These waves can be both longitudinal (P-waves) and transverse (S-waves) in nature.
