Detailed Solution

A sound wave is a type of longitudinal wave.
Sound is produced by the vibrations of particles of the object. Hence particles are the main carriers of the sound waves. But the position of the particles does not change while vibrating. Also, particles vibrate along the direction of the propagation of the sound; hence it is a longitudinal type wave also.
