What else can I help you with?
Are the three types of seismic waves the same?
no, there are p-waves, s-waves, surface waves
What are the two types of waves?
The three types of seismic waves are:P waves, S waves, and Surface waves
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
How do seismic waves affect us?
Seismic waves affect us because they are what causes the motion from an earthquake that destroy buildings and such. The three types of seismic waves are surface waves primary waves also called P-waves and secondary waves also called S-waves.
What kind of movements is produced by each of the three types of seismic waves?
P waves - compress and expand the ground like a Accordion S waves - vibrate from side to side as well as up and down Surface waves - make the ground roll like ocean waves The Earthquake is produced by each of the three types of seismic waves.
What is the sub types of seismic waves?
four types of diagnostic waves
What types of waves are produced by waves and explosions?
seismic waves
What are the two types of seismic surface waves?
body waves and surface waves
How many types of seismic waves are produced at the same time in an earthquake?
Three main types of seismic waves are produced at the same time in an earthquake: primary (P-waves), secondary (S-waves), and surface waves. P-waves are the fastest and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. S-waves are slower and only travel through solids. Surface waves are the slowest and cause the most destruction.
What Are The Three types Of Waves In order By Speed?
The three types of waves in order of speed are: P-waves (Primary waves) - fastest seismic waves, travel through solid and liquid. S-waves (Secondary waves) - slower than P-waves, can only travel through solid. Surface waves - slowest seismic waves, travel along Earth's surface causing most damage during earthquakes.
What are the main types of seismic waves are?
Body waves and Surface waves
What types of waves are p waves and s waves called?
seismic waves
