What Movement of the faults produces which kind of energy waves?
The movement of faults produces seismic waves. When an earthquake occurs, it generates three types of seismic waves: P-waves (Primary waves), S-waves (Secondary waves), and surface waves. P-waves are the fastest and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. S-waves are slower and move only through solids. Surface waves cause the most damage and travel along the Earth's surface.
What is the portion on earth that does not receive any seismic eaves from a particular earquake?
The region on Earth where seismic waves from a particular earthquake are not detected is known as the seismic shadow zone. This zone occurs between 104 to 140 degrees from the earthquake's epicenter because seismic waves are refracted and reflected by the Earth's outer core.
Through what do seismic waves travel fastest?
seismic wave travels faster through solid rock and slower through water, but i dont know why!
Is it possible that the earthquake in Haita on January 12 2010 can lead to a tsunami?
i dont think so depending on where the epicenter was and how strong the seismic waves were
What do you do not do in Japan and Thailand?
dont joke about tsunamis
How do surface waves differ form body waves?
Body waves: seismic waves that travel through the body of a medium Surface waves: seismic waves that travel along the surface of a medium and have a strong effect near the surface of the medium than it has in the interior
What do you call a body of land completely surrounded by water that acts like a wall protecting the mainland from ocean waves?
i dont no
Why doesn't south Australia have tsunamis?
its because we are awesome and we dont live on a fault line
How are tsunamis dangerous?
It was not founded, i dont think. It is just a Huge trench in the ocean FORMED naturally. tsunamis are so poopy yeah bro
How does waves manifest?
they dont
Why do seismic waves slow down in the asthenosphere?
Under the pressure and temperature conditions of the Earth's mantle, minerals can (very slowly) be deformed without cracking. This is called ductile deformation. A lot of the deformation in mantle rocks is accomplished by this mechanism. The ultimate cause for the asthenosphere to move is the gradient of temperature between the core and the surface that drives mantle convection. Hot material moves up from the lower portions of the mantle and cold material sinks down.
How do vibrations produce sound waves?
sound waves dont produce vibrations, vibrations are sound waves.
