Why does diffraction of light support the idea that light is made of waves?
Diffraction is a typical phenomenon for all sorts of waves. So is interference - another clue that light is made of waves.
In the earth's interior which part causes the diffraction of P waves made by earthquakes?
Any change in density will cause diffraction (and or reflection) of seismic waves.Some key density boundaries include the Moho or Mohorovičić discontinuity which marks the boundary between the crust and the mantle, and the Gutenberg discontinuity which marks the boundary between the mantle and the outer core.
What are the waves that are made by earthquakes?
tsunami
What is the name of giant sea waves caused by earthquake?
giant waves made by earthquakes is called tsunamis
What are the changes in the earth's structure that causes earthquakes?
Tectonic plates on The Earth move which causes earthquakes. If 1 plate collides with another it can form hills, volcanoes and/ or mountains. If the earthquake occurs in water, it can cause tsunamis.
How can you use P waves in a sentence?
the p waves are distracted by the sex of volcanoes and earthquakes. i made an a on that when i said this to my teacher in 6th grade.
What is the baffle on the Mackie HR824 made of?
The baffle on the Mackie HR824 is made of Cast Aluminum. The baffle was made to reduce diffraction aimed at getting the best image of your mix and to control the sound waves.
How does the seismograph works?
it measures and records the elastic ground vibration called seismic waves that are generates by earthquakes and man made explosions
Why was the god Poseidon important to man?
he made tidal waves, earthquakes, and much more to the sailors. he was the god of sea and storms.
What causes a lot of damage?
Natural disasters such as extreme weather and earthquakes, man made disasters such as war.
What is sound made by the wind called?
What we call sound are in fact just pressurewaves propagating through the air. Our ears and brain detect and convert these pressure waves to electric signals which we interprete as being sound. The frequency of these waves determines the altitude of the tone, while the amplitude defines the volume of the sound.When waves (eg pressure waves) pass through openings that have about the same magnitude (or less) than the wavelength of the incident wave, diffraction will occur. Once passed through the opening, diffraction will "generate" a phase difference between waves starting from the top and bottom of the opening. This phase difference leads to interference. Phenomena like diffraction and interference of waves will alter the caracteristics of the incident wave. For example, some frequencies can be cancelled out while others may become bigger. This is what happens in constructive and destructive interference. Different frequencies lead to different sounds because of the connection between frequency and sound.
What does a seismograph measure measure?
A seismograph measures the vibrations made when earth layers "move", such as the waves of movement during an earthquake.Frequency and amplitude of seismic waves.
