Mark the INCORRECT statement about longitudinal pressure wave.
Options
The density variation and the longitudinal velocity of the particles have their maxima and minima at the position of equilibrium of the particles.
At the position of maximum displacement, the density is at the ambient (environment) value.
Greatest compression occurs at the same time and place where the velocity of the particles is maximum and in direction of wave propagation.
Greatest rarefaction occurs at the same time and place where the velocity of the particles is maximum and in direction of wave propagation.
