acoustic wave
An acoustic wave is a type of mechanical wave that is a result of the oscillation of pressure in a solid, liquid, or gas, and is transmitted as vibrations through a medium in the form of sound. This often results in the transfer of energy, most commonly in the form of sound energy. Acoustic waves are primarily characterized by their frequency, wavelength, and speed.

Acoustic wave
Acoustic waves are a type of longitudinal waves that propagate by means of adiabatic compression and decompression. Longitudinal waves are waves that have the same direction of vibration as their direction of travel. Important quantities for describing acoustic waves are sound pressure, particle velocity, particle displacement and sound intensity. Acoustic waves travel with the speed of sound which depends on the medium they're passing through.
