Wavelength is the distance from one crest to another of a wave. Since sound is a compression wave, the wavelength is the distance between maximum compressions. ... Since sound is a compression wave, its amplitude corresponds to how much the wave is compressed, as compared to areas of little compression. Thus,

Shear Wave: A wave in which the disturbance is an elastic deformation perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. (Shear waves are also called 'transverse waves.'); Compression Wave: A wave in which the disturbance is a compression of the medium.
