What waves propagate the energy of sound and explosions and earthquakes?
seismic waves
Why the radio waves are similar to light waves but not sound wavesexplain?
Radio and light waves are electromagnetic waves, sound waves are not.
Light and sound waves have many similar properties however light waves are while sound waves are?
transverse; longitudinal.
What is the relationship between earthquakes and crustal movement?
Crustal movements cause earthquakes because of the sound waves and the movement underground.
How are noise and music similar?
they both have sound waves.
What instrument records earthquake waves?
A seismometer / seismograph.A seismograph measures and records the waves generated by earthquakes and similar seismic events.
Do microwaves work with sound waves at all?
Microwaves and sound waves are similar because they are electromagnetic waves. The main difference between the two types of waves is the length of the wave. Sound waves are longer than microwaves.
How are ocean waves and sound waves similar?
deyy all got dem vowelz
What are waves produces by earthquakes called?
The waves produced by earthquakes are called seismic waves.
Do sound waves have mass?
Waves do not have mass and volume. They transmit energy without transmitting mass. However, waves can be found in solid materials such as earthquakes.
What travels in waves?
Mechanical waves such as sound and water waves.Electromagnetic waves, such as light, radio, microwaves, x-rays.
In terms of source what is the difference and similarities of sound waves and water waves?
Sound waves and water waves are similar in that they are both caused by vibrations and carry energy. They are different in that a sound waves are three dimensional, while water waves are just two dimensional.
