two types of body waves?
p waves and s waves
How have scientists determined that the outer layer is liquid?
Seismic waves can be separated into basically two different types; S-waves and P-waves. P-waves are able to travel through liquid and solid, but S-waves can not travel through a liquid, they can only travel through a solid. When scientist "shoot" P and S-waves at the outer core, they detect the P-waves coming out the other side, but not the S-waves.
How are surfaces different from body waves?
A body wave is a seismic wave that moves through the interior of the earth, as opposed to surface waves that travel near the earth's surface. P and S waves are body waves. Each type of wave shakes the ground in different ways.
What are the two types of body waves?
The most main two body waves are S wave & P wave
How many different ways are there to spell poop?
only two ways. spell it regulary then u can spell it backwards
What are the two types of energy waves created by an earthquake?
hey i kno this ha ha ha ha ha the two waves are p waves and s waves
How are p waves different from s waves?
i have no idea. You do blah blah blah
What patterns do seismograph data reveal?
The different types of waves- s waves p waves or surface waves
What is different about the seismic waves?
The way seismic waves are different are that they're slower than the p waves who move a lot faster to reach the earthquake.
What happens the the p wave when they strike the inner core?
When the P wave strikes the inner core it bends and goes in a different direction.
P waves and S waves are two kinds of seismic waves.?
No. S waves and P waves are energy waves sent from the epicenter of the earthquake. But they are the part of an earthquake that causes damage.
Vibrational tremors sent out from an earth quake?
Well there are two P waves and S waves. P waves come first . then S waves come. P waves come from underground and S waves are above ground and move in the shape of an S and they are the ones that collapse buildings
