Which type of seismic wave can travel through the interior of the?
If you mean Earth's interior, only longitudinal waves can pass through the liquid parts.
How do data seismic waves indicate that earths outer core is liquid?
Because since secondary waves cannot pass through liquids or solids, and the waves can't pass thruogh the outer core than that means that the outer core is not soild.
Will a seismic wave traveling through a solid go faster or slower than a seismic wave traveling through liquid?
Seismic waves travels faster through solid rock than water because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.Solid rock is denser than water, hence the energy from seismic waves transfer faster through solid rock than in water.
Which conclusion based on the analysis of seismic data supports the inference that earths outer core is liquid?
there are convection currents in the upper core.
Which type of seismic wave does not pass through fluid?

Which type of seismic wave can only pass through earths mantle?
There is no seismic wave that can only pass through the Earth's mantle. However S-waves can not travel through earth's outer core because it is a liquid.

Which kind of seismic wave cannot pass through water?
The S-wave.

What are liquid drops or solid particles spread through gas?
A gas cannot easily pass through a liquid or a solid however it can be entrapped in it . If a gas bubble is formed in a liquid it moves upward and escapes out of the liquid. Gas cannot pass through a solid barrier.

Seismic waves travels faster through solid rock than water because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.Solid rock is denser than water, hence the energy from seismic waves transfer faster through solid rock than in water.
Which kind of material through which water cannot pass?
Water cannot pass through tyvek. Water vapor can however but liquid water cannot. Tyvek is high-density polyethylene fiber and is a synthetic material.
Is the earth's core liquid?
yes, the Earth's core is liquid.Scientists have found this out by seismic waves. They are unable to pass through liquid and whilst tracking them, scientists found that they avoid the center, telling us that the center of the earth is liquid.
How do scientists know there is some form of liquid inside of the earth?
S-waves (shear) from earthquakes cannot pass through liquid, P-waves (pressure) from earthquakes can pass through liquid. Seismic data show a total shadow of S-waves directly opposite the point at which an earthquake happened, but no shadow of P-waves directly opposite the point at which an earthquake happened, Therefore liquid inside the earth is blocking the S-waves from getting into this shadow area.

What lead to the discovery of the Mohorovicic Discontinuity or 'Moho'?
The discovery of moho was through seismic waves...There are two 2 waves namely, Primary and Secondary waves...Secondary waves cannot pass through liquid and gasses. Thus, There is an abrupt increase in the velocity of earthquake waves (specifically P- waves) at this point.
