i got a crush on you!! i <3 tyler prifrel!
What are the differences between primary and secondary and seismic waves?
Firstly, there are 3 types of seismic waves. Long Waves, Primary Waves(Longitudinal) and Secondary Waves(Transverse). Long Waves travel quickly along the Earth's crust, the thin outer layer. Primary Waves are longitudinal waves, they can travel both through solids andliquids, so they travel through the crust, the mantle, and the outer core (note that they refract through each layer, as each layer has a different density. Secondary Waves are transverse waves, they can only travel through solids, so they go through the inner and outer mantles, and curve away from the cores.
What can you learn from a seismograph?
they can learn about earthquakes before there about to happen and they can learn also about the layers of the earth when the wave goes through the earth.
Name 3 examples of sources of ignition for a fire?
Spark, heat, & lightning.
What is the fewer number of seismographic stations that must record the arrival time of waves in order for the epicenter of an earthquake to be located?
3
What are the 3 examples of radiant energy?
radio waves, gamma waves, x-rays, and visible light.
What are 3 facts about transverse waves?
Transverse waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Light waves, water waves, and seismic S-waves are examples of transverse waves. The displacement of particles in a transverse wave is described by a sine or cosine function.
Give 3 examples of transverse waves in action?
Water wavesEarthquakesStrings on a musical instrument
What are 3 examples of transverse waves?
Light waves: Electromagnetic waves, including visible light, travel in a transverse motion. Water waves: Waves on the surface of water move in a transverse manner, with the particles of water oscillating up and down. Seismic S waves: Secondary seismic waves, also known as S-waves, generated by earthquakes propagate as transverse waves through the Earth's interior.
Give three examples of mechanical waves and identify the medium through which they travel?
There are only two types of mechanical waves: longitudinal waves, and transverse waves..In a longitudinal wave, the waves themselves oscillate, or vibrate, in the same direction as the wave travel. Longitudinal waves are also called compression waves. Sound and seismic P-waves are examples of mechanical longitudinal waves..In a transverse wave, the waves oscillate perpendicular to the direction of the wave travel. Ocean waves and seismic S-waves are examples of mechanical transverse waves..See the related links for further information about longitudinal and transverse waves.
What are 3 examples of media that waves travel through?
Air: Sound waves travel through air and can be heard as sound. Water: Water waves travel through bodies of water like oceans, lakes, and rivers. Electromagnetic spectrum: Light waves, radio waves, microwaves, and other forms of electromagnetic waves travel through a vacuum or various materials.
What are the 3 types of waves?
P-waves (Primary Waves) -- Body WaveS-waves (Secondary Waves) -- Body WaveSurface Waves (Rayleigh and Love)The 3 types of seismic waves are P waves, S waves and surface waves.
The 3 types of seismic waves are what?
P-waves (Primary Waves) -- Body WaveS-waves (Secondary Waves) -- Body WaveSurface Waves (Rayleigh and Love)The 3 types of seismic waves are P waves, S waves and surface waves.
What are 3 catigories of waves?
water waves, light waves, and sound waves
What are the 3 types of breaking waves?
The 3 types of breaking waves are spilling waves, plunging waves, and surging waves. Spilling waves break gradually over a long distance, plunging waves break quickly and more forcefully, and surging waves break directly on the shoreline.
What are 3 waves a wave can interact?
primary waves are the fastest waves
5 examples of waves?
Ocean waves: These are created by the wind blowing across the surface of the ocean. Sound waves: These are vibrations that travel through a medium (such as air) and allow us to hear. Light waves: These are electromagnetic waves that allow us to see and come in different wavelengths. Seismic waves: These are waves generated by the movement of tectonic plates during an earthquake. Radio waves: These are used for communication and broadcasting and are part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
