What is it called when s sesmic wave bounces backward when it reaches a boundary?
Reflection.
What is it called when light crosses a boundary from one substance to another?
Light refracts when is crosses the boundary between two materials. That means that is the light is coming in at one angle, then it will change direction at the interface and have a different angle moving out from the other side. There is an old formula called Snell's Law that predicts the exit angle in terms of the properties of the material, i.e. in terms of the index of refraction. There is reflection as well. Some light bounces off of a boundary and some is transmitted.
What is it called when a wave bounces off something?

What is it called when a seismic wave bounces backward when it reaches its boundary?
Reflection
What is it called a seismic wave bounces backward as it reaches a boundary?
Reflection
What is it called when s sesmic wave bounces backward when it reaches a boundary?
Reflection.
What is it called when a selsmic wave bounces backward when it reaches a boundary?
Reflection occurs when seismic wave bounces backward as it reaches a boundary. It refers to the change in direction of a wave front at an interface between two different media.
What is it called when a seismic wave bounces backward as it reaches a boundary?
Answer: When a seismic wave 'bounces backward' and reaches a boundary, it is called Reflection. Explanation: The seismic waves are the result of the landslides, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, explosions by humans
