Which are more destructive body waves or surface waves?
Surface waves.
What type of seismic waves that arrive at the surface first?
Those are the P-waves, which are the fastest and weakest.
Are surface waves the first to arrive at a seismic facilty?
p waves s waves surface waves so no
What is the reason that surface waves usually cause the most damage?
Surface waves (L and R waves) have both higher amplitudes and lower frequencies than body waves, and these low frequencies often match the resonant frequencies of man-made structures
Which earthquake waves do the most damage to surface structures and buildings?
Surface waves
Waves that travel at the surface such as Raleigh and long waves?

What 2 waves are surface waves?
Love waves and Rayleigh waves are surface waves
How are hurricanes related to waves?
The winds from a hurricane blowing across the water's surface creates waves. The stronger the wind, the bigger the waves. Put some water in a bowl and blow across the surface. You made waves.
Which are more destructive body waves or surface waves?
Surface waves.
How is echo made?
Echos are created by the reflection of sound waves from a surface.
When do P waves arrive at the surface in relation to S waves?
when the P waves arrive at the surface in relation to s waves and surface waves is called the promary waves.
When a raindrop hits the surface of a lake circular surface waves form What is true about these surface waves?
The surface waves cannot be classified as transverse or longitudinal waves.
Where do surface waves occur?
surface waves occur on the surface its visible to people and people can surface
What are the three seismic waves in order?
The three types of seismic waves are: P waves S waves Surface waves ( two surface waves. Riley surface wave and love surface wave named after scientists
