What angles does an s wave move?
Secondary waves, or S waves move from side to side, or up and down.
What do eardrums do when sound waves reach them?
The eardrums are like an omnidirectional microphone. The sound pressure vibrates the membrane (diaphragm) of the eardrum and the microphone only from one side.
What are waves that move from side to side?
S waves are waves that move from side to side.
What type of waves cause particles to move back and forth in the same direction the waves are moving?
transverse waves do not carry anything with them, and the particled are not moving exept up-and-down or side-to-side mimicking the wave pattern.
Are the particles in gas can only vibrate from side to side?
No, they can move in any direction.
What are Earthquake Waves That Vibrate From Side To Side And Up And Down Only Through Solids Are Known As?
seismic waves actually the correct answer is S waves. trust me if you put seismic waves it will be wrong
What kind of movement is produced by each of the three types of seismic waves?
P waves - compress and expand the ground like a Accordion S waves - vibrate from side to side as well as up and down Surface waves - make the ground roll like ocean waves The Earthquake is produced by each of the three types of seismic waves.

What order do seismic waves come in?
First P waves, seismic waves that compress and expand the ground like an accordion. Then S waves, seismic waves that vibrate from side to side as well as up and down. And finally Surface waves, they move more slowly than P waves and S waves. But they can produce severe ground movements.
What kind of wave are sound waves?
Sound waves are longitudinal waves; they travel from side to side, not up and down like transverse waves.
How fast do secondary waves travel?
Secondary or S Waves are a form of waves which are produced as a result of shift in tectonic plates during an earthquake. Such waves only travel through solid surfaces and disintegrate upon reaching liquids. They always tend to adapt a back and forth motion as they move along. They are often referred to as "body waves".
Why are s waves more destructive than P waves?
S-waves move side to side, not up and down (P-waves). Buildings can go up and down without a problem, not side to side.
These waves cause side to side movement?
These are called s waves (secondary waves) while p waves move up and down s waves move side to side
What directions does P waves and S waves go?
P waves go side to side. S waves go up and down.
Which waves arrive at a seismogrqph first?
P-waves those are up and down and next are S-waves that's side to side
How do you get the itouch on vibrate?
Go onto the app store and install vibrate massage.
