What is the main difference between body wave and surface waves?
Surface waves travel slower than body waves.
Explain the amplitude of a water wave?
The difference between the highest and lowest point of the surface of the water.
What is the difference between swell and whitecap?
A swell is a wave or series of waves that are caused by surface gravity. However a whitecap wave is caused by the wind.
what is the difference between longitudinal and surface waves?
Longitudinal wave particles move parallel to the way the wave is moving. Surface wave particles move in a circular motion.
What is an example of a body wave?
An example for a surface wave would be flat because the surface is flat.
What is the difference between primary and secondary waves?
A primary wave is a strong vibration or wave that hits earths surface (P) and a secondary wave (S) is a wave that hits soon after but not nearly as big.Read more: Distinguish_between_primary_wave_and_a_secondary_wave
Which wave is a body wave?
A body wave is a seismic wave that moves through the interior of the earth, as opposed to surface waves that travel near the earth's surface. P and S waves are body waves. Each type of wave shakes the ground in different ways.
Explain the difference between a wave and a wavelength?
A wave is a normal wave and a wave length is the wave Height or distance
The main difference between a radio wave and a light wave is its?
Wavelength.
Why is there such a large difference between wave heights of surface and internal waves?
The surface waves have further distances to go. The internal waves just barely leave their starting points so they are smaller.
What is the difference between signal and wave?
wave is a part of a signal . millions of wave construct a signal .
Which of the following is NOT a body wave of an earthquake?
*sigh* Don't just copy and paste the questions....your answer is "Surface Wave"
