Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
When a sound wave moves through the air, a point in the air undergoes alternative changes in density called compressions and rarefactions.
A sound wave is a longitudinal waves, which means that the vibrations of the particles in the medium occur in a direction parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. Longitudinal waves creates two different regions in the medium:
- Compressions: these are regions where the density of the particles of the medium (in this case, air particles) are higher
- Rarefactions: these are regions where the density of the particles of the medium (in this case, air particles) are lower
