Detailed Solution

Rarefaction happens when two points in the wave are farther from each other.
Rarefaction is defined as the region where two particles are farthest from each other. Both compressions and rarefactions happen during the propagation of a longitudinal wave. Rarefaction occurs when there is given extra space, and it is allowed to expand. It is a region where there is low pressure. They both occur in sound waves. When a vibrating object goes back into the air as a medium, it creates a region of low pressure. This is the rarefaction.
