How long does it take a s wave to travel 5000km?
about 1 hour. (nahsee)
How long does it take lightning to go around earth once?
The radio waves from a lightning stroke travel at the speed of light, you can hear them as clicks on a long-wave radio, and they travel round the world in 1/7th of a second.
What type of wave can travel to space?
im pretty sure shock waves do. and light wave def. do.
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
What is vibrations that travel through earth carrying the energy released during and earthquake?
A specific type of mechanical wave known as a seismic wave.
How long does it take a s wave to travel 5000km?

How long does it take an S wave to travel km?
An S-wave travels at 3.5 kilometers per second. If you have an S-wave traveling 6000 kilometers, it would take 1.7seconds.
How long would it take a wave to travel SW from Brittany buoy to the Isle of Wight?
9,000 miles
How long does it take a wave to travel 2000 km?
In a solid such as rock, the primary wave can travel at 5 km/sec; it would take 400 seconds, or about 6.7 minutes to travel 2,000 km. If traveling through water, the wave travels at about 1.45 km/sec and would need 1,379 seconds (23 minutes) to travel 2,000 km.
How long does it take for a sound wave to travel through 3000 m of water?
Sound travels at approximately 1500 m/s in water. So, it would take about 2 seconds for a sound wave to travel through 3000 m of water.
How long does it take for a sound wave to travel through 300 meters of water?
The speed of sound in water is approximately 1500 m/s. Therefore, it would take approximately 0.2 seconds for a sound wave to travel through 300 meters of water.
How long will it take the wave to travel 480km?
I believe you should review the speed of the wave the medium through which it is traveling and whether or not you have already been given all the information you need to answer.
How long does an earthquake p-wave take to travel the first 6500 kilometers after the earthquake occurs?
P-waves travel at speeds between 5 to 8 km/s, as such a P-wave may take between 812 and 1300 seconds (13 and 22 minutes respectively) to travel 6500 km. Please see the related question on P-wave velocity.
How long will it take a wave to travel 5000km?
That depends a lot on the speed. Assume any appropriate speed, then divide the distance by the speed.
How long would it take for a primary wave to travel from San Francisco California to Reno Nevada?
A primary wave (P-wave) can travel at an average speed of about 6 km/s through the Earth's crust. The distance between San Francisco, California, and Reno, Nevada, is approximately 350 km. Therefore, it would take around 58 seconds for a primary wave to travel from San Francisco to Reno.
How long would a wave take to travel 5000 km?
The time it takes for a wave to travel 5000 km depends on the wave's speed. For example, if we're considering sound waves in air, which travel at about 343 meters per second, it would take approximately 14.5 hours. In contrast, electromagnetic waves, such as light, travel at about 299,792 kilometers per second, taking only about 0.01667 seconds to cover the same distance. Thus, the time varies significantly based on the type of wave.
Is it true that a wave will travel only as long as it has energy to carry it?
Yes, that is correct. A wave will only travel as long as it has enough energy to propagate through the medium. Once the energy dissipates or is absorbed, the wave will stop propagating.
