What type of waves are primary waves?
A primary wave is a strong vibration or wave that hits earths surface (P) and a secondary wave (S) is a wave that hits soon after but not nearly as big.
What causes waves?
The MOON cause waves on the surface of the ocean (and on lakes). The MOON transfers some of its energy to the water, through friction between the air molecules and the water molecules.
How does the speed of an object's vibration affects its sound?
Sound is the way that our ears and brains interpret compression waves (waves parallel to the direction of travel of the wave). As an object vibrates, it compresses and decompresses the air around it very quickly creating a compression wave. When the frequency of the object's vibration is faster, the rate at which it compresses and decompresses the air around it also is faster, meaning that our ears pick up a higher pitched sound. Slower vibrations create a lower pitched sound.
Are P-waves and S-waves transverse or longitudinal waves?
P-waves are longitudinal and S-waves are transverse waves.
What are the three categories of seismic waves?
p wave comes first s wave comes next and last comes surface wave.
What are sound waves of irregular vibration in matter?
The sound waves of irregular vibration in matter is called noise.
What does vibration have to do with waves?
Vibration is the source of waves. When an object vibrates, it creates disturbances in a medium, like air or water, that propagate as waves. The frequency of the vibration determines the frequency of the resulting wave.
How are waves related to vibration?
Waves create a vibratiob!<(-_-)>
What waves moves along the vibration?
Compression waves
What is the reflection of waves?
The reflection is vibration because sound is equal to vibration
What happens to the frequency of the waves when you increase the rate of vibration?
the amplitude increases
What are energy waves that are vibration traveling through earth?
Seismic waves: longitudinal compression waves.
What waves are caused by back and forth movement vibration of an object?
Mechanical waves are caused by the back and forth movement or vibration of an object. These waves require a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. Sound waves and seismic waves are examples of mechanical waves.
Are waves created by vibration?
Waves that travel through a medium are caused by vibration eg sound waves are caused by vibrating drum/ vocal cords etc and this causes the air particles to vibrate; a vibration in a still pond will cause waves of water. However, light, radio waves are radiation. Electromagnetic waves are radiated eg light from the Sun is radiated to Earth through the vacuum of space.
How does light and sound waves travel?
vibration
What occurs in the eardrum?
Vibration from sound waves
How does water as waves travel through it?
vibration
