What is energy transfer by waves known as?
Hydrolic energy
The transfer of energy in the form of rays or waves is known as what?
Radiation.
How does the energy from an earthquake reach the surface earth?
in the form of body waves known as p (compressional waves) and s waves (shear waves). the energy of the earth quake also produces surface waves which have long amplitudes and short frequencies causing them to be extremely destructive
How is the transfer of energy as seismic waves related to the frequency and magnitude of earthquakes in an region?
how is the transfer of energy as seismic waves related to frequency and magnitude of earthquakes in a region
What is the transfer of thermal energy by electromagnetic waves?
Thermodynamics

What is the the transfer if the suns energy by electromagenetic waves?
the tranfer of energy from the sun in form of electromagnetic waves is known as radiation.
Do light waves transfer energy?
Do light waves transfer energy
How is sound refected from surfaces?
Sound is mechanical energy. The energy displayed by the source is transferred into the medium through which it travels. When the wave, that moving energy, comes into contact with a surface, some of the energy is transferred into the surface. But how much? The more solid and "less moving" the surface (seen on a tiny scale), the less the moving air waves, those compression and rarifaction waves, can transfer energy into the surface. And that's what it's all about. The "softer" the surface, the more those pressure waves in air can affect that surface and transfer their energy into it.
What two type of waves transfer energy?
ALL waves transfer energy.
What are waves of energy released by movements of rock under the earth's surface?
These are known as seismic waves.
How does energy transfer from the sun?
energy is transferd from the sun in form of electromagnetic waves in a process known as radiation
If a disturbance sends ripples across water in a tub What do the ripples represent?
These waves are called surface waves. Since they transfer energy from one point to another, they are also called energy waves.
What is transfer of energy through radiation?
radiations are in the form of waves and waves are the mode of energy transfer.
What is the transfer of energy in the forms of waves?
As the ocean's waves absorb or release energy from the sun, the transfer of energy changes.
How does from an earthquake reach Earth's surface?
energy reachs earth surface through seismic waves: P waves S waves and Surface waves
