What is another name for pressure wave?
"Tide" or a faster wave would be a "White cap"
What effect do tidal and storm waves have on a coastline?
One obvious affect is to salt the earth ... dumping millions of gallons of salt water far inland, thereby draining the fertility from the land.
The seismic waves of an earthquake are useful in determining?
The waves of earthquakes help us determine information about the interior of the earth. The more geologists know about the interior of the earth, the better they can predict earthquakes and other changes in the formation of the Earth's crust.
How sesmic waves travel through earth?
like sound waves through a solid. Place one hand one end of a table and have ur friend bang the other end and see if u feel it. that's how seisic waves travel
How does a tsunamis effect the geosphere?
When the waves come crashing to land, it gathers rocks and sand along the way and deposits it on other parts of the land. This erodes the Earth.
What CSI did Justin bieber star in?
The first one was shock waves and the second one was targets of obsession. :)
When was amnesia discovered?
Possibly soldiers in combat in World War One. it was a side effect of what was called Shell Shock from deafening artillery and bomb shock waves- not to mention poison gas, also used in this conflict.

What causes tides but not waves and currents?
The gravity of the Sun and the Moon causes tides. Waves are caused by the wind. Currents have a variety of causes, but differential heating of different parts of the Earth by the Sun, modified by the coriolis effect of the turning Earth is the main one.
Is shock waves a good gel?
An excellent one. Non-sticky and stays in place 24/7
What is another name for pressure wave?

Explain the main cause of earthquakes and their effects?
The primary cause of an earthquake is faults on the crust of the earth. The cracks or sudden slips of the land are known as faults or fault planes. The point of origin of the earthquake is inside the earth and is known as the hypocenter. Maximum destruction is caused at the epicenter, the surface above the hypocenter. When there are sudden movements in the various layers of the earth, crust or mantle, concentric waves are produced. These waves are known as seismic waves and are of three types; Primary Waves (P-Waves), Secondary Waves (S-Waves) and Surface Waves (L-Waves). These waves have different patterns of movement. Earthquakes usually have foreshocks and aftershocks. The main earthquake or the one with the maximum magnitude is known as the main shock. Its intensity is calculated by the magnitude of seismic waves, measured with the help of a seismograph. The measurement is taken on the Richter scale.
What is the effect of the core on seismic wave?
There are 2 sorts of waves, the effect depends on which one you consider - see the link
What are the characteristics of a P-Wave and S-Wave?
P-waves are also known as seismic waves. One of the characteristics of P-waves are a that they can travel through a continuum made up of gases, liquids and solids such as the Earth. Another characteristic of P-waves are that they can shake the ground in the same direction in which the wave is moving and it can also shake the earth in the opposite direction of the moving wave.
What effect do tidal and storm waves have on a coastline?
One obvious affect is to salt the earth ... dumping millions of gallons of salt water far inland, thereby draining the fertility from the land.
Why does mesomorph make you tingle?
It sends shock waves through your body as soon as the siemen is released. I like a relieved feeling, a good one.
Will shock syndrome effect my life?
Yes, having shock syndrome can directly affect your life, and to manage it you should attend therapy sessions with a group or a one on one session, another way is to do active activities.
