What else can I help you with?
Is seismic waves and earthquake waves the same?
Seismic waves are any waves that travel through the Earth. As such all earthquake waves are seismic waves, however not all seismic waves are caused by earthquakes.
Are shear waves and seismic waves the same?
A shear wave is a type of seismic wave.
Is a seismic wave the same as a radio wave?
No. Seismic waves are mechanical. Radio waves are electromagnetic.
Can there be a seismic wave without having an earthquake?
It is possible to have a seismic wave without having an earthquake. Any wave moving through the ground is a seismic wave, and all earthquakes are seismic waves. But seismic waves can be created by volcanic action, landslides, meteor strikes or the like. Though all earthquakes are seismic waves, not all seismic waves are earthquakes.
Are the three types of seismic waves the same?
no, there are p-waves, s-waves, surface waves
What things are the same between the seismic?
Seismic waves, regardless of their type, share several fundamental characteristics. They all involve the propagation of energy through the Earth's materials, whether in the form of body waves (P-waves and S-waves) or surface waves. Additionally, they all travel at different speeds depending on the medium they move through and can be influenced by factors such as temperature, pressure, and material composition. Lastly, all seismic waves can be detected and analyzed using seismographs, providing critical information about the Earth's internal structure and seismic activity.
The most destructive seismic wave are .?
The Surface waves (of which there are two - the Love and Rayleigh waves) are the most destructive seismic waves as they have the largest amplitude.Surface waves cause the most damage as they have the largest amplitude of all the seismic waves.S Wave.yhuk
How you can use the words seismic wave and seismograph in the same sentence?
The seismograph measured the intensity of the seismic waves
What does seismic?
(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
What is another name for earthquake waves?
Seismic waves.
Seismic waves that shear rock side to side are called?
seismic waves actually the correct answer is S waves. trust me if you put seismic waves it will be wrong
What kind of waves are responsible for all the damage an earthquake cause?
seismic waves
