The mantle of course.....because sound waves travel through liquid like surfaces better than solid rock.

What is the outermost layer of the earth's crust?
the outer most layer of earth is CRUST
How thick is the outermost layer of the Earth?
No the crust is the outer layer of the earth!!!
What is the solid out layer of the earth?
The thin solid outermost layer above the mantle is the Crust.GAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
What layer of the atmosphere is closest from the earth?
The troposphere is the layer closest to the Earth.
3 How do earthquakes help us learn about the interior of the earth?
Earthquakes explain and support tectonic plate theory and show the movements of the plates over time. Fault lines also expose rock layers and allow geologists to study the rocks and the changes in the environment over time.An Earthquake gives out Seismic waves which. There are Primary Waves (P-Wave) and Secondary waves (S-Wave) The Secondary Seismic wave can't travel through liquid so when the sensors detect a wave and sees that some part the S-wave isn't going through a layer of the earth they know that that layer of the earth is Liquid.
What layer of the earth will a seismic wave travel trough faster?
The mantle
What layer of Earth do Secondary waves NOT travel through?
Outer core and Mantle
What type of earthquake wave travels faster?
P-waves(primary waves) travel faster than S-waves(secondary waves)
Layer of the earth through which P waves travel slowly and S waves cannot travel at all?
outercore
What compositional layer would you travel through in the exact center of earth?
crust
The study of how seismic waves change as they travel through the EARTH HAS REVEALED?
Earth's outer core is liquid because S-waves are not transmitted through this layer
How did scientists determine Earth has layers?
Scientists determined that the Earth has layers through studying how seismic waves travel. These seismic waves differed depending on how thick the layer was.
Which have scientist learned from studying seismic waves that travel through earths interior?
The speed of the waves that travel through the interior can tell the density of each layer of the Earth. Some waves can make it through certain layers, but not others.
Do p waves travel through earths mantle?
Yes, P-waves (primary waves) can travel through the Earth's mantle. P-waves are a type of seismic wave that is capable of propagating through solid, liquid, and gaseous materials. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through the mantle, which is the layer between the Earth's crust and core.
What layer of the atmosphere do meteors travel through?
All of them.
How heat waves travel through the ozone layer?
Heat waves do not travel through the ozone layer. Some infrared radiation passes through it, but "far infrared" does not. Ozone is a greenhouse gas.
What layer of Earth's interior will S waves not be able to travel?
liquid
