What else can I help you with?
What wave does not pass through liquid outer core?
Transverse waves do not pass through the liquid outer core of the Earth. These waves vibrate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, making it unable to pass through the liquid outer core due to its fluid nature.
What is a transverse wave associated with an earthquake and which cannot move through liquid?
The Secondary or S-wave is a transverse wave associated with earthquakes that can not pass through liquids.
Which type of seismic wave cannot pass through air and liquid?
The type of seismic wave that cannot pass through air and liquid is the S-wave, or secondary wave. S-waves are shear waves that require a medium with rigidity to propagate, which means they can only travel through solids. Unlike P-waves (primary waves), which are compressional waves and can move through both solids and fluids, S-waves are unable to transmit through liquids or gases.
Which type of seismic wave can only pass through earths mantle?
There is no seismic wave that can only pass through the Earth's mantle. However S-waves can not travel through earth's outer core because it is a liquid.
Which kind of seismic wave cannot pass through water?
The S-wave.
A body wave that doesn't penetrate the earth's core?
A body wave that doesn't penetrate the Earth's core is a type of seismic wave known as a S wave. S waves, also called secondary waves, are slower than P waves and only travel through solids. They cannot pass through the liquid outer core of the Earth.
Which wave Does not pass through earths liquid outer core?
S-waves, or shear waves, do not pass through Earth's liquid outer core. Unlike P-waves (primary waves), which are compressional and can travel through both solids and liquids, S-waves can only move through solids. This inability to traverse the liquid outer core provides crucial evidence for the Earth's internal structure.
Why can't S-wave travel through earth's core?
S waves cannot travel through liquid. The Earth's core is liquid.
Which wave type can pass through the solid inner core?
Primary (P) waves can pass through the solid inner core of the Earth. P-waves are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through solid, liquid, and gaseous materials.
What is a body wave that does not penetrate the earth's core?
A body wave that does not penetrate the Earth's core is a compressional wave or P-wave. P-waves travel through the Earth by compressing and expanding the material they pass through, but they do not travel through the outer core because the outer core is liquid.
Why is the s-wave shadow zone larger than the p- wave shadow zone?
S waves cannot pass through the outer core. P waves can pass through both outer and inner core.
Will seismic wave traveling through a solid go faster or slower than a seismic wave traveling through liquid why or why not?
why can s-wave can't travel but p-waves can
