How does earths inner core affect seismic waves?
They go faster through the inner core than the liquid outer core
What happens to seismic waves when they pass through the solid inner core?
Seismic waves than changes direction and speed because of the matter it's passing through and the moving from different matter's (Inner core-Outer core)
The seismic waves that travel through Earths interior are waves.?
body waves
Do p waves travel through earths mantle?
Yes, P-waves (primary waves) can travel through the Earth's mantle. P-waves are a type of seismic wave that is capable of propagating through solid, liquid, and gaseous materials. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through the mantle, which is the layer between the Earth's crust and core.
What evidence did scientists use to figure out Earths inner core is solid?
Scientists use the difference in density between the inner and outer core as evidence that the inner core is solid. This was proven using seismic waves traveling through the earth.
What type of earthquake waves can not pass through the earths inner core?
Most of them, as the Earth's inner core is equivalent to that of the sun.
How does earths solid inner core affect seismic waves?
They go faster through the inner core than the liquid outer core.

What do earthquake waves travel through?
earthquake waves travel through the earths crust.
Do S waves travel through earth's inner core?
While S waves (shear waves) can travel through earth's solid inner core, they cannot travel through earth's liquid outer core, which surrounds the inner core.So, unless the S waves originated inside the inner core (which seems unlikely) there are no S waves traveling through earth's inner core.
What kind of waves can travel through earth and along earths surface?
The wave that can travel through earth and along earths surface is a SEISMIC wave.
What is a seismic wave that travels through the earths interior?
body waves
Can S waves travel through the earths mantle?
s-waves do not travel through Earth's mantle
Do Secondary waves travel through the earths surface?
