What is a wave of energy that travels through earth away from an earthquake?
A seismic wave.
How earthquake are located?
I'm pretty sure that an earthquake gives off a seismic wave and that seismic wave is then written on a seismograph that tells how strong it was and what kind of wave it was. with that knowledge a scientist can estimate how far away the earthquake was when it started and where it was
What are the seismic waves of the Earth's crust?
Rock under stress breaks at the focus, releasing energy and vibrations called seismic waves, which travel away from the focus, through Earth's interior, and across the surface. The three types of seismic waves are: Primary waves: The first to arrive at seismographs Secondary waves: The second to arrive at seismographs Surface waves: The last and most severe to arrive at seismographs
Where would earthquake damage be more - near the epicenter or away from the epicenter?
All other factors being equal, the seismic waves will be felt most strongly at or near to the epicentre of the earthquake.
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
How far away from the earthquake is the receiving station?
360 Km
How many seconds would it take for the P-waves to reach the seismic station?
That would depend on how far away it was in the first place. Just use the formula:distance = time x speedOr, solving for time:time = distance / speed
How many seconds would it take for a p-wave to reach the seismic station?
That would depend on how far away it was in the first place. Just use the formula:distance = time x speedOr, solving for time:time = distance / speed
If you are driving 55 mph and you need to reach the train station 27 miles away how long will it take to arrive at the train station in the rain?
About 30 minutes.
How long would it take for the first s-wave to arrive at a seismic station 4000 kilometers away from the epicenter of an earthquake?
12 minutes and 40 seconds
How long will it take for the Wave to arrive at a seismic station 4000 kilometers away from the epicenter of an earthquake?
S-waves will take 31 seconds P-waves will take 8 minutes
What does the Cowbell skull do in halo reach?
In Halo: Reach, the Cowbell skull increases the acceleration scale from explosions by 3x. In other words, the radius of the explosion is increased and you'll need to be farther away if you want to avoid receiving damage.
What is a wave of energy released from an earthquake?
The seismic or shock energy that travels through Earth away from an earthquake is a form of mechanical energy. Mechanical energy applies force to materials. That's what seismic energy does in moving rocks in the earth's crust.
What is a wave of energy that travels through earth away from an earthquake?
A seismic wave.
Do seismic wave get stronger or weaker as they move through the earth?
weaker as it travels away
Stay is to leave as took away is to?
stay is to leave as take away is to receiving
How does an earthquake in one place cause damage in another place far away?
seismic waves :)
