What else can I help you with?
Will a seismic wave traveling through solid go faster or slower than a seismic wave traveling through liquid?
Mechanical waves (like seismic waves) will travel faster through a solid than a liquid.
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.
Will seismic wave traveling through a solid go faster or slower than a seismic wave traveling through liquid why or why not?
why can s-wave can't travel but p-waves can
Will a seismic wave travelling through a solid go faster or slower than a seismic wave travelling through liquid?
The velocity of seismic waves is controlled by the density and elastic properties of the material through which they travel. Solids tend to have larger elastic modulii than fluids. As the speed of a seismic wave increases as the elastic modulii increase, this means that they tend to travel faster through solids.
Through what do seismic waves travel fastest?
seismic wave travels faster through solid rock and slower through water, but i dont know why!
Light travel faster through solid or liquid?
liquid
Do sound waves travel faster threw liquid or solid?
Sound waves generally travel faster through solids than through liquids. This is because the particles in solids are closer together, allowing for more efficient transmission of seismic waves. In liquids, the particles are more spread out, leading to slower sound wave propagation.
Which seismic wave can go through both solid and liquid?
Primary waves (P-waves) are the seismic waves that can travel through both solid and liquid materials. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through the Earth's interior, passing through both solid and liquid layers.
Seismic waves travel through Earth's layers at different speeds depending on the what?
Seismic waves travel through Earth's layers at different speeds depending on the density and composition of the materials they encounter. For example, seismic waves travel faster through solid rock than through molten magma or liquid layers. This variation in speed helps scientists to study and understand the internal structure of the Earth.
Can Seismic waves travel through space?
NO! Seismic waves can't travel through space. They are mechanical waves. Mechanical waves require going through mediums and there isn't a medium in space.
Do sounds travel faster throw liquid?
no sound travels faster through solids.
In what direction do seismic waves carry the energy of an earthquake?
Seismic waves are the earths crust vibrating. there are two types of waves P-waves and S-waves (Primary and Secondary) Primary waves travel faster than s waves and can travel through solid and liquid, S-waves can only travel through solids
