What medium do P waves travel through?
As a wave moves through different materials, different phenomena occur: Geometrical spreading, Absorption, Reflection/Refraction, and DiffractionGeometrical Spreading: Wave spreads over a larger surface as it travels through the medium. For a spherical wave, the wave energy falls off as the square of the distance.Absorption: A part of wave energy is dissipated into the earth as heat. Wave energy falls off exponentially with distance.Reflection/Refraction: When a wave encounters an interface between two layers, part of its energy is reflected back. The other part is refracted (transmitted) into the other medium.Diffraction: It occurs when wave encounters sharp discontinuities in the medium.
What are the 3 types of waves?
P-waves (Primary Waves) -- Body WaveS-waves (Secondary Waves) -- Body WaveSurface Waves (Rayleigh and Love)The 3 types of seismic waves are P waves, S waves and surface waves.
What type of waves are sound waves, and are they transverse waves?
