What is a characteristic of kinetic energy?
A characteristics is that they only travel through matter
What are the waves of force called that travel through Earth as a result of an earthquake?
Seismic Waves.
What is a seismic monitor?
A machine or program to measure seismic waves that travel through the earth after an earthquake or explosion.
What direction will earthquake waves travel?
Earthquake waves travel in all directions.
What is the speed of sound through paper?
Sound waves need matter to travel through, and wood is matter, so yes, sound waves travel through wood. They travel through wood faster than they do through air, as wood is denser than air.
What do earthquake waves travel through?
earthquake waves travel through the earths crust.
What is a characteristic of kinetic energy?

How does the process of travelling heat from vacuum differ from the heat travel through matter?
In a vacuum its all electromagnetic radiation, in matter it's a question of atomic (molecular) motion.
Why cant you get energy from the sun through convection?

A joint's capacity to travel through a full range of motion is the definition for?
Flexibility-a joint's capacity to travel through a full range of motion.
What kinds of energy travel through matter?
Heat and light energy travel through space and matter
What type of earthquake wave could travel through a vacuum?
Since an earthquake or seismic wave is a pressure or force wave (like sound waves), it requires a material in which to propagate. So, no earthquake waves can travel through a vacuum.
Can travel only through some type of matter .can travel either through matter or through empty space?
One example would be X-Rays. They are stopped by Lead, but travel through other matter and empty space.
What can travel either travel through matter or through empty spaces.?
volume
What state of matter do P and S waves travel through?
P waves can travel through all types of matter. S waves can only travel through solids.
What are earthquake generated waves called?
Earthquake generated waves are called seismic waves. These are waves of energy that travel through the Earth's layers. Their velocity depends on the elasticity and density of the medium that they travel through.
How do rays travel?
through matter
