P-waves, also known as primary waves, move the fastest among seismic waves. They are able to travel through solid and liquid materials, making them the first to be detected during an earthquake.
The study of Earth's surface landforms is known as geomorphology.
Rising air carries moisture from the surface to higher altitudes where it cools and condenses into clouds and eventually raindrops. This process, known as convection, is essential for the formation of precipitation as it allows water vapor to transform into liquid water and fall back to the surface as rain. Without rising air, there would be limited vertical movement of moisture, resulting in drier conditions and less rainfall.
The weathering of the Earth's surface is known as erosion, a process in which soil and rock are broken down by wind, water, or other natural forces.
surface waves also known as longitudnal waves . they travels at constant speed on the circumference of the earth
A ray that travels towards an object is known as an incident ray. It represents the path of light before it interacts with the object's surface.
A seismic wave that travels along the Earth's surface is called a surface wave. These waves tend to cause the most damage during an earthquake because they have a longer wavelength and higher amplitudes compared to other types of seismic waves like body waves.
Bulking of sand means increase in it's volume due to presence of surface moisture . The volume increases with increase in moisture content . The volume may increase up to 20 to 40% when moisture content is 5 to 10 %.Due to moisture in each particle of sand, sand gets a coating of water due to surface tension which keeps the particles apart. This causes an increment in volume of sand known as Bulking.
dry river beds etched in the surface the existence of compounds that are known to form only in the presence of water residual moisture content in the rocks
Glycerol, also known as glycerin is a humectant that draws moisture from the air to the skin in humidity above 65%. Below that humidity, it draws moisture from the deeper layers of the skin to the surface, causing dehydration.
Moisture falling from clouds is known as precipitation.
It is known as the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.
The atmospheric moisture is absorbed by the surface of masonry, flooring, or concrete through the joints, voids, or cracks. When the same water is evaporated from the surface, it leaches the lime compounds and forms the formation of salt deposits on the surface of masonry, flooring, or concrete. It is known as efflorescence or saltpetering.

Sound travels in compressional waves, also known as longitudinal waves, where the particles of the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave's motion.
