seismic waves thta shakes particles at right angles to the dircetion that they travel
What else can I help you with?
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
Are P-waves and S-waves transverse or longitudinal waves?
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
What type of seismic wave are P waves and S waves?
P and S waves are body waves.
Do waves travel faster than S waves?
no p waves travel faster than s waves
What are the three categories of seismic waves?
p wave comes first s wave comes next and last comes surface wave.
Do p waves or s waves have higher velocity?
P waves have a higher velocity than S waves. This is known because P waves (Primary waves) arrive at recording stations faster than all other waves. S waves (Secondary waves) arrive second at recording stations.
Are s-waves slow or fast?
S-waves are slower than P-waves, which are the fastest seismic waves. S-waves are shear waves that move in a back-and-forth motion, causing particles to move perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
What are known as s waves?
S waves, or Secondary waves, are earthquake waves during an earthquake. They crash after P waves ( Primary waves) and are less stronger than surface waves
What is the difference Between S waves P waves?
P-waves are faster than s-waves. Both can pass through solid rock, but only p-waves can pass through gases and liquids === ===
Do P-waves have a higher amplitude than S-waves?
S-waves actually have a higher amplitude, despite being slower than P-waves. It is this amplitude that indicates stress, which is why S-waves can't travel through liquids, as liquids cannot support the stresses of S-waves
Is it true that surface waves move more quickly than p waves and s waves?
no, p waves are the fastest followed by s waves and finally surface waves
What are the two types of body waves?
The two types of body waves are P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves (secondary waves). P-waves are compressional waves that travel through solids, liquids, and gases, while S-waves are shear waves that only travel through solids.
