Are P-waves and S-waves transverse or longitudinal waves?
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
What are the three categories of seismic waves?
p wave comes first s wave comes next and last comes surface wave.
Which travels slower p waves or surface waves?
surface waves because p waves and s waves are way faster so here is how it goes from fastest to slowest: is p wave and then s wave and then surface waves
What types of waves are p waves and s waves called?
seismic waves
He area of earth that is unaffected by both p and s waves?
No, but P and S waves are used for earthquakes..and everybody should know that p waves come befoe s waves during an earthquake and maybe even during an aftershock....
Where p and s waves begin?
Who knows where they begin .
Are P-waves and S-waves transverse or longitudinal waves?
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
What type of seismic wave are P waves and S waves?
P and S waves are body waves.
What is the difference Between S waves P waves?
P-waves are faster than s-waves. Both can pass through solid rock, but only p-waves can pass through gases and liquids === ===
What does the S wave and P wave stand for?
P waves are primary waves and S waves are called secondary waves
When do P waves arrive at the surface in relation to S waves?
when the P waves arrive at the surface in relation to s waves and surface waves is called the promary waves.
What directions does P waves and S waves go?
P waves go side to side. S waves go up and down.
Are p waves transverse waves or longitudinal waves?
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
What is s waves and p waves?
P-waves are faster than s-waves. Both can pass through solid rock, but only p-waves can pass through gases and liquids === ===
How much faster does p waves move than s waves?
P-waves move around 3 km/s faster than s-waves.
What are the three categories of seismic waves?
p wave comes first s wave comes next and last comes surface wave.
Is it true that surface waves move more quickly than p waves and s waves?
no, p waves are the fastest followed by s waves and finally surface waves
