In longitudinal waves, particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of the disturbance.
In longitudinal waves, individual particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of wave propagation. They oscillate back and forth around their equilibrium positions, experiencing alternating compressions and rarefactions as the wave passes through.
