Seismic waves that cannot travel through liquids?
Shear Waves (S Waves) cannot travel through liquid
Layer of the earth through which P waves travel slowly and S waves cannot travel at all?
outercore
Which type of seismic wave cannot travel through the core?
S-Waves, or shear waves cannot travel through the liquid outer core because liquids have no shear and therefore shear waves cannot propagate through them http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-wave
What happens when s waves hit the outer core of earth?
Because the Earth's core is liquid; S-waves can't travel through liquid.
Can S waves travel through the earths mantle?
s-waves do not travel through Earth's mantle
Seismic waves that cannot travel through liquids?
Shear Waves (S Waves) cannot travel through liquid
What can s waves not travel through?
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D
Why can't s waves travel through earth?
S waves cannot travel through liquid. The Earth's core is liquid.
S-waves cannot travel through?

The shadow zone is caused by of waves as they travel through Earth.?
The shadow zone is caused by S-waves as they travel through Earth. S-waves, however, cannot travel through the outer core of the Earth, which is molten. This is because S-waves lose velocity when travelling through a liquid.
Why can't S-wave travel through earth's core?
S waves cannot travel through liquid. The Earth's core is liquid.
What happens when s waves hit the outer core of earth?
Because the Earth's core is liquid; S-waves can't travel through liquid.
Which layers can S-waves travel through?
s-waves travel through solids only
Do S waves travel through earth's inner core?
While S waves (shear waves) can travel through earth's solid inner core, they cannot travel through earth's liquid outer core, which surrounds the inner core.So, unless the S waves originated inside the inner core (which seems unlikely) there are no S waves traveling through earth's inner core.
Can S waves travel through the earths mantle?
s-waves do not travel through Earth's mantle
