How do seismic waves form?
By the earths atmosphere
Do Secondary waves travel through the earths surface?
No, secondary waves (S-waves) cannot travel through the Earth's surface. They are a type of seismic wave that move through the Earth's interior and cannot propagate in liquids or gases, making them unable to travel through the surface.
The seismic waves that travel through Earths interior are waves?
body waves
The seismic waves that travel through Earths interior are waves.?
body waves
What do earthquake waves travel through?
earthquake waves travel through the earths crust.
What waves go through the earth's atmosphere?
Elastic waves, particularly sound waves and seismic waves, can travel through the Earth's atmosphere. Sound waves propagate through the air, while seismic waves are generated by earthquakes and travel through the Earth's crust and mantle.
Does radiowaves get through earths atmosphere?
Yes, radio waves can penetrate Earth's atmosphere. They are part of the electromagnetic spectrum and are able to pass through the atmosphere with minimal interference, which allows them to be used for various forms of communication, such as radio and television broadcasts.
Which earths layer are S waves not transmitted?
S-waves are not transmitted through the outer core.
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.
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.
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.
Why might an earthquake's primary wave but not it's secondary wave reach a location on the other side of the world from the epicenter?
Only primary waves travel thought the earths interior because S waves cannot travel through the liquid portion of Earths interior and P waves can. Whoever you are, you were just schooled by an eighth grader =)
