What else can I help you with?
What can s waves not travel through?
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D
Do secondary waves travel through solids but not through liquids?
Secondary waves are transverse or shear waves which are able to pass through solids, but are not able to pass through liquids.
Do primary waves travel through solids?
No because Primary wave will inconsult the water
Do longitudinal waves travel through solids and liquids?
Confusing question. Try this - sound waves travel though solids and liquids (and gases), and electromagnetic ("radio") waves travel through a vacuum and gases well, les well through liquids such as water, and hardly at all though conducting solids such as metals.
P waves can travel through solids and liquids but S waves can only travel through solids P waves travel faster through rock than through liquid This fact is used to help determine the composition yo?
...the composition of the Earth.
Will a primary wave travel through liquid?
Yes. Primary waves are compression or longitudinal waves can pass through solids, liquids and gasses.
Which forms of matter can primary and secondary seismic waves travel through?
Primary seismic waves are longitudinal waves. Longitudinal waves can travel through solids, liquids and gasses (although seismic waves are of to low a frequency to normally be heard). Secondary seismic waves are transverse waves and only travel through solids.
What kind of earthquake wave can travel through both liquids and solids?
That would be the P wave, or Primary wave
What kind of seismic waves do and do not travel through liquid?
Both P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves (secondary waves) can travel through solid and liquid materials. However, S-waves cannot propagate through liquids as they require a solid medium for transmission.
What type of waves travel through liquids fastest?
there is no specific wave they all travel faster through water but scientifically speaking sesmic waves do i belive also The speed of sound depends on the medium in which it is transported. The speed of sound is slow in gases, like in air. The speed of sound is faster in liquids, like in water. The speed of sound is fastest in solids, like in metal.
Do p waves travel through gases?
Yes, P-waves (primary waves) can travel through gases, liquids, and solids. They are seismic waves that are the fastest and can propagate through any material, including the Earth's atmosphere.
What can s waves not travel through?
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D
What type of earthquake wave can go through solids and liquids?
P-waves can pass through liquids,solids,and gases. A P-wave is a type of body wave that has an up and down motion. Another type of body wave is the S-wave. S-waves CAN'T pass through liquids but they can pass through solids and gases. I hope that answered your question. =)
Why secondary waves cannot travel trough liquids?
Secondary waves, or S-waves, require a medium with solid properties to propagate, as they involve shear deformation of the material. Liquids do not have shear strength, so S-waves cannot travel through them. As a result, S-waves cannot pass through liquids like water or magma.
Certain seismic waves travel as?
There are three main types of seismic waves that travel through the Earth: P-waves (primary waves) are the fastest and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. S-waves (secondary waves) follow P-waves and can only travel through solids, not liquids or gases. Surface waves travel along the Earth's surface and are responsible for most of the damage during an earthquake.
Does air travel through solids liquids and gases?
Air can travel through some kinds of solids, if they are porous. Otherwise it can't. It can travel through liquids in the form of bubbles. It does not exactly travel through gases so much as mix with them.
What seismic waves move the fastest?
Primary (P) waves move the fastest among seismic waves. They are compressional waves that travel through the Earth's interior, and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases.
