S waves are longitudinal seismic waves?
True
When an earthquake occurs S waves are the first seismic waves to arrive at a given location.?
true
P waves and S waves are two kinds of seismic waves.?
No. S waves and P waves are energy waves sent from the epicenter of the earthquake. But they are the part of an earthquake that causes damage.
Scientist learn about the earth's interior by studying?
Scientist learn about the earth's interior by studying seismic waves. 'P' waves travel all the way through Earth's crust, mantle, outer and inner core and give scientists a glimpse of the interior.
Is this question true or false to study earths interior geologists often rely on indirect methods such as evidence from fossils?
no they use seismic waves
When an earthquakes occurs S waves are the first seismic waves to arrived at a given location?
true
Is it true that seismic waves are vibrations that travel through earth as the result of earthquakes?
yes
Is it true or false that Earthquakes permit us to see the structure of the Earth's interior?
It is true that seismic waves from earthquakes allow us to interpret the structure of Earth's interior.
Are S waves are longitudinal seismic waves?
True
S waves are longitudinal seismic waves?
True
Why do seismic waves change speed?
"True, the Seismic Waves change speed and direction when they encounter different materials."
True or false the energy of earthquakes travel in waves?
True.
When an earthquake occurs S waves are the first seismic waves to arrive at a given location.?
true
Do all tsunamis have huge waves that do a lot of damage?
No. Tsunamis and tidal waves are actually quite different. True tidal waves are just that - tidal waves. Tsunamis are usually triggered by underwater earthquakes, volcanoes or nearby seismic activity.
P waves and S waves are two kinds of seismic waves.?
No. S waves and P waves are energy waves sent from the epicenter of the earthquake. But they are the part of an earthquake that causes damage.
What is bulk moduls?
The bulk modulus is a factor in the speed of seismic waves from earthquakes. A common statement is that water is an incompressible fluid. This is not strictly true, as indicated by its finite bulk modulus, but the amount of compression is very small.
How are waves related to sound energy and seismic energy?
the energy in a wave begins to disperse as it gets farther from the point of origin, this is true for any wave including sound and seismic waves
