How do we know the outer core is liquid?
seismic waves travel slowly trough
What are the properties of surface waves?
The basic properties of transverse waves are: Amplitude Time Period Frequency Phase Wavelength Crest Trough
Is sunlight and radiowaves a good example of compression waves?
Sunlight and radiowaves are examples of electromagnetic waves, which are transverse mechanical waves. Sound waves are compression waves.
What are some examples of sound waves?

What are 2 examples of electromagnetic waves?
Transverse and Compressional electromagetic waves Another opinion: No electromagnetic waves are compressional waves. They're all transverse. I think what the question was looking for is: -- Heat and visible light -- Radio waves and X-rays -- Ultraviolet and gamma rays etc.
what is at the bottom of a waves?
Trough
What is a trough and a crest?
it has to do with waves. trough- is the bottom of the wave crest- is the top of the wave
What is the wavelenght of the waves?
The maximum height of crest and trough determines the wavelength of waves
What is a trough in waves?
It is the Lowest point in a wave the upper point is the crest the bottom point is the trough H
What is the hollow between waves in the sea called?
trough
What can sound waves not travel trough?
A perfect vacuum
What is called low point of the waves?
The trough or the valley between two waves is the lowest part of a wave. Its highest point is called the crest.
What is The lowest points of a wave?
The lowest point of a wave is known as the trough
What word is there that starts with W that has to do with earthquakes?
wavelength - distance between waves (eg crest to crest or trough to trough)
What is a trough?
In electromagnetic waves -- or ocean waves, for that matter -- a crest is the peak, or maximum height, of the waveforms. A troughs is the lowest point. The wavelength of a wave is measured from one crest (peak) to the next or from one trough to the next. The trough is the low point of a wave.
A real life example of a wavelength?
There are many real life examples of a wavelength. The radio station on campus produces waves of about 3 meters--we solved for it in a lab given a frequency and the velocity of sound in air. The wavelength of a wave in general is considered to be crest to crest or trough to trough... Which is very visually apparent if you imagine a series of waves on the ocean.
What is the result of two waves over laping?
I'm guessing you're talking about Transverse waves? eg. ~ Waves consist of two parts - a crest and a trough. The crest are the high points, and a trough is the low points. When a crest meets another crest, the wave is amplified, causing constructive interference (the crests add to each other). The same thing occurs when a trough meets a trough. However, when a crest meets a trough, the wave is diminished, causing destructive interference (the crest and trough cancel each other out).
