What else can I help you with?
How do you measure the arrival time of a seismic shock wave front?
By sing a seismometer which records the amplitude of seismic waves as well as their arrival time.
What can locate a seismic wave?
A seismograph can locate a seismic wave.
What seismic wave causes the most damage?
Seismic wave
What type of wave is the fastest?
The fastest wave is the electromagnetic wave. Of the seismic waves, the P-wave is the fastest seismic wave.
How do you stop a seismic wave?
You need a shotgun and shoot the wave and that's how you stop a seismic wave
Are shear waves and seismic waves the same?
A shear wave is a type of seismic wave.
Which earthquake wave is not a seismic wave?
the sound wave
Which type of a wave is a surface wave?
a seismic wave
What is a seismic wave that causes particules of rock to vibrate in the same direction which the wave is moving?
That would be a P-wave or Primary wave which is a longitudinal seismic wave.
Does the surface wave magnitude or M's measure the movement of seismic waves underneath the Earth's surface?
No, the surface wave magnitude or Ms measures the amplitude of ground motion but does not directly measure the movement of seismic waves underneath the Earth's surface. It is used to quantify the size of earthquakes based on the amplitude of surface waves.
Can there be a seismic wave without having an earthquake?
It is possible to have a seismic wave without having an earthquake. Any wave moving through the ground is a seismic wave, and all earthquakes are seismic waves. But seismic waves can be created by volcanic action, landslides, meteor strikes or the like. Though all earthquakes are seismic waves, not all seismic waves are earthquakes.
What is a seismic wave that travels through Earth Interior?
A body wave is a seismic wave that travels through Earths interior.
