Which type of wave is a secondary wave?
Any wave has two directions: the up and down direction (primary wave) and the side to side direction (secondary wave).
What are two words in vocabulary that describe the bending of a wave?
Refraction and diffraction are two words that describe the bending of a wave. Refraction occurs when a wave changes direction as it passes from one medium to another, while diffraction is the bending of a wave around obstacles or through openings.
What is the wavelength in a sound wave?
To find the wavelength, the following formula applies: λ = ν / f That in common words is: Wavelength = Wave's Speed / Wave's Frequency So, Wavelength of sound wave = Speed of sound wave / Frequency of sound wave Now, Speed of sound wave is 343 m/s, so Wavelength of sound wave = 343 m/s / Frequency of sound wave Frequency of sound waves audible to a human ear range between 20 Hz to 20 kHz. So filling the desired sound frequency in the equation above you get the desired wavelength of that sound wave.
Seismic wave that causes the ground to move in two directions?
secondary waves or otherwise known as s-waves
constructive interference occurs when the crest of one wave meets up with the through of a second wave?
Crest of a second wave. In other words, the two crests, first wave and second wave, add up together, which is constructive.
What does the s in s-wave mean?
Surface Wave(:
What are two words that describe the bending of a wave ray?
Reflection and Refraction
Which type of body wave always arrives after the P-wave?
The next type of seismic wave to arrive after the P-wave is the S-wave.
What are the two plural words end with s?
Two plural words ending in '-s':table > tableschair > chairs
Which wave the p-wave or s-wave would arrive at seismometer afer the eatrhquake?
Both, first the P wave Then the S wave.
What is the wavelength of wave if the distance between two consecutive crests is L?
Wavelength (m)=Wave speed (m/s) /Frequency (Hz)
What is the difference between a siesmic wave and a seismograph?
a siesmic wave is a wave that travels through the earth. there are two MAIN types, P and S waves. a siesmograph shows the type of wave and how far away it is from that point.
