Which type of body wave always arrives after the P-wave?
The next type of seismic wave to arrive after the P-wave is the S-wave.
What type of waves are there?
p-wave s-wave l-wave
What is the fastest type of siesmic wave?
Primary Wave (P wave)
Which seismic wave type arrives first during an earthquake?
The P Waves. Then the S Waves.
What type of wave is the fastest?
The fastest wave is the electromagnetic wave. Of the seismic waves, the P-wave is the fastest seismic wave.
Is a P wave longitudinal or transverse?
A P wave is a type of seismic wave that is classified as a longitudinal wave. Longitudinal waves are characterized by the vibration of particles in the same direction as the wave is moving.
What type of wave is a P wave?
A P wave is a type of seismic wave that travels through the Earth's interior. It is a compressional wave, meaning the particles it passes through move in the same direction as the wave itself. P waves are the fastest seismic waves and are the first to be detected during an earthquake.
What is the fastest type of seismic wave?
The fastest type of seismic wave is the primary wave, or P-wave. P-waves are compressional waves that travel through solids, liquids, and gases, and they are the first waves to arrive at a seismograph during an earthquake.
What type of seismic wave that compresses and expands the ground?
Longitudinal Waves
What type of earthquake wave travels in a push and pull movement?
The Primary or P-wave which is a type of compression or longitudinal wave travels with a push and pull movement.
What is a p wave?
A P wave is a type of seismic wave generated by an earthquake that travels the fastest through the Earth's layers. It is the first wave to arrive at a seismograph station and is known as a compressional wave because it pushes and pulls the rock particles as it moves.
What is the type of earthquake wave that pushes and pulls rock in the direction it is traveling is the?
P or primary seismic wave.
