What waves travel through solids liquids and gases?
Seismic waves travel through solids, liquids, and gases.
What can s waves not travel through?
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D
What are the mediums that waves can travel through?
Waves can travel through many media, depending on their nature. Sound waves can go through solids, liquids and gases. Transverse shock waves can only travel through solids. Electromagnetic waves can go through some solids, liquids or gases, or through a vacuum.
Do secondary waves travel through solids but not through liquids?
Secondary waves are transverse or shear waves which are able to pass through solids, but are not able to pass through liquids.
Waves travel faster through liquids and solids?
sound
How do sound waves travel through gas?
Compression waves (same as for solids & liquids).
Can a p wave travel through gas?
P waves can travel through gas, solids, and liquids and Swaves can only travel through solids.
What does P waves travel through?
Gasses, solids and liquids :P
What media can mechanical waves travel through?
solids, liquids, gasses
What waves travel faster through liquids and solids?
Sound waves, being longitudinal in nature, travels faster in liquids and solids.
Can earthquakes travel through liquids and solids?
Earthquakes can only happen in solids. Earthquake waves are a different matter:p-waves can travel through both solids and liquidss-waves can only travel through solidssurface waves (e,g, Rayleigh waves, Love waves) can only travel on the surface of solidsetc.
A seismogram shows that p waves travel?
P waves travel through solids, liquids, and gases. it is the fastest of all the waves.
