I don’t know what it means to have a sound wave with zero momentum.
- ggm 4y agoLongitudinal sound waves in physical materials cause movement at the surfaces. It relates to the harmonic qualities of the wave and the material. A sound wave with zero momentum would be specific to a solid, and its behaviour, and the sound wave in question. (obviously this tendency to cause movement has magnitude, including zero)
