What kind of waves are associated with earthquakes?

Seismic waves are associated with earthquakes. These waves travel through the Earth's layers and cause shaking and ground displacement during an earthquake. There are two main types of seismic waves: body waves, which travel through the interior of the Earth, and surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface.


What kind of waves travel through earth?

What kind of wave travels faster in a solid?

P-waves, also known as primary waves, travel faster in a solid compared to S-waves, secondary waves. P-waves are compressional waves that can travel through both solid and liquid layers, while S-waves are shear waves that can only propagate through solid materials.


What kind of waves can't travel through the core of the Earth?

S-waves.


What kind of waves travel through matter?

Sound waves and gamma rays.


What kind waves can travel through space?

Electromagnetic waves, such as light and radio waves, can travel through space because they do not require a medium to propagate. These waves can travel through the vacuum of space and do not need a material substance to carry them.


What do electromagnetic waves need to travel?

Electromagnetic waves don't need anything to travel. This kind of waves does not need a medium to move through, therefore they can even travel through outer space.


What kind of waves can travel only through a medium?

What kind of seismic waves do and do not travel through liquid?

Both P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves (secondary waves) can travel through solid and liquid materials. However, S-waves cannot propagate through liquids as they require a solid medium for transmission.

What kind of waves can travel through earth and along earths surface?

Seismic waves are the types of waves that can travel through the Earth and along its surface. There are two main types of seismic waves: body waves (such as primary and secondary waves) that travel through the Earth's interior, and surface waves (such as Love and Rayleigh waves) that travel along the Earth's surface.
