1 Electromagnetic energy (light) is an example of a transverse wave. Electromagnetic Energy (Light):

2 What is an example of a longitudinal wave? You guessed it, SOUND…….

3 Sound Energy requires a medium (matter) to travel. Sound is produced (made) when objects vibrate. Vibrating objects push particles of matter next to them and cause those particles to compress.

4 Facts About Sound: Sound travels much slower than light. Sound travels faster through solids than liquids and faster through liquids than gases. Sound waves also travel faster through warmer matter than colder matter.
