Do waves created by a large disturbance travel faster than waves created by a small disturbance do?
No, waves with a smaller disturbance travel faster. This is because they have less distance to travel.
Why do waves travel outward in a circular pattern away from original disturbance?
Under certain circumstances, the waves will go out in all directions. If they go at the same speed in all directions, the pattern will naturally be circular - or spherical, if it's in three dimensions.
Do Waves created by a large disturbance travel faster than waved created by a small disturbance?
a large wave because it is built and its structure is stronger.
What is a disturbance that moves through some type of matter or space?
a wave. Electromagnetic waves (such as light or radio waves) do not need a medium to travel through. Mechanical waves (such as sound waves) require a medium (matter) to travel through.
Do waves made by a large disturbance travel faster than waves made by a small wave?
No. In any case, there shouldn't be much difference.

What direction will earthquake waves travel?
Earthquake waves travel in all directions.
What is the disturbance that travels in a water and EM waves?
The disturbance that travels in a water and EM waves is sometimes known as electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic waves have the ability to travel through a vacuum.
Do Waves created by a large disturbance travel faster than waved created by a small disturbance?
a large wave because it is built and its structure is stronger.
Which direction do Seismic waves travel?
in all directions

Does Polarized light occurs when light waves vibrate in all directions?
Yes

No. In any case, there shouldn't be much difference.
How the seismic waves of an earthquake travel?
Out words in all directions from the source.
How do you know waves transfer energy in the direction of the travel of wave?
seismic waves travel in all directions. the reason we know is because of earthquakes.
Are light waves transverse waves?
Yes, light waves are transverse, because in light wave, disturbance of the medium occurs at right angles to the direction of wave propagation of wave.
