What pattern do waves move in?
in a waving pattern... up and down.
What are seismic waves that move rocks up and down like a wave in a rope?
S waves
Wave that moves back and forth?
True. The up-down type of wave is called a "transverse wave". Light, for example, is this kind of wave. Sound, however, is a different kind of wave. It is the back-forth type, called "longitudinal", or "compression" waves.
What Longitudinal wave that is first to reach the location of an earthquake?
Transverse
What order do seismic waves come in?
First P waves, seismic waves that compress and expand the ground like an accordion. Then S waves, seismic waves that vibrate from side to side as well as up and down. And finally Surface waves, they move more slowly than P waves and S waves. But they can produce severe ground movements.
These waves cause side to side movement?
These are called s waves (secondary waves) while p waves move up and down s waves move side to side
When sound waves interfere to create standing waves the points on the medium that move up and down with the largest amplitudes are called nodes.?
False
When sound waves interfere to create standing waves the points on the medium the move up and down with the largest amplitudes are called?
false antinodes

When sound Waves interfere to create standing Waves t he points on the medium that move up and down with the largest amplitude are called?
The Correct Answer Is AntiNodes
What angles does an s wave move?
Secondary waves, or S waves move from side to side, or up and down.
What moves in waves?
The particles of the medium move up and down as the wave passes. The crests and troughs of the waves move with the wave.
When sound waves interfere to create standing waves the points on the medium that move up and down with the largest amplitudes are called nodes?
false antinodes
What are seismic waves that move rocks up and down like a wave in a rope?
S waves
ARE ocean waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
Ocean waves are transverse waves because they move up and down.
When sound waves interfere to create standing wave the points on the medium that move up and down with the largest amplitudes are called?
ANTINODES
