As a sound wave moves through the air the air molecules do not move forward at the speed of sound but rather, oscillate back and forth as harmonic oscillators in the same general location while the sound wave passes (see question one).

The side to side shaking that happens in an earthquake is the result of a longitudinal wave, as is the sound wave produced by the movement of a speaker cone or the vibration of a guitar string.
