Can a frog sense an earthquake approaching?
Yes, most animals have better hearing than humans. The frogs can hear the primary waves (P waves) approaching. This irritates them and they go crazy. The P waves come before an earthquake.
Can animals hear radio waves?
Generally, Yes. Sonic Waves is a fancy way of saying "sound". Obviously, people cannot hear sounds whose frequency is outside of the human ear's sensitivity, such as bat echolocation, and deaf people cannot hear at all, but most things are within the human ear's capacity to receive and hear.
What do primary waves do to rocks?
The first waves to hit are primary waves. Primary waves are seismic waves that compress and stretch the ground. P waves, or primary waves, can wreck buildings and can move straightforward through solids and liquids.
Which seismic waves travel the fastest?
Primary (P) waves are the fastest. Followed by secondary (S) waves, then surface waves. P waves
How do cats freak out before an earthquake?
Pets and animals will start to act crazy about 10-30 seconds before an earthquake hits. This is because they have better hearing and they can hear P waves or primary waves coming. A P wave is a very fast wave that can go through solids, gases, and liquids. So just before an earthquake, the Primary Waves are coming.
Are the primary waves faster then the secondary waves?
Primary seismic waves travel the fastest.
Which animal can hear ultrasonic waves?
whale can hear ultrasonic sound waves.
Longitudinal seismic wave are known as?
The Answer is primary waves.
What are waves that arrive after primary waves?
Secondary waves
Why do animals often behave strangely before an eruption?
Before an eruption, the Earth's surface starts vibrating. This vibration causes infrasonic sound waves which are below the audible range of human hear (i.e. 20Hz-20kHz). But some animals can hear these infrasonic waves and are aware of the danger. So they start moving in a direction opposite to the source of these waves. Birds take to the air.
What waves are there for earthquakes?
Primary waves, Secondary waves, and Seismic waves
What are the waves that arrive after primary waves in the Earth?
Secondary waves.
