What else can I help you with?
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.
Which earthquake wave is not a seismic wave?
the sound wave
What is a long wave caused by an underwater earthquake or other disturbance called?
A tidal wave is caused by an earthquake.
What kind of earthquake wave is purely longitudinal?
The P 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
Was the Kashmir earthquake caused by a mechanical wave or electromagnetic wave?
A mechanical wave.
Which one of the following is not an example of a mechanical wave water wave earthquake wave sound wave or radio wave?
Radio wave is not an example of a mechanical wave because it is an example of an electromagnetic wave. Mechanical waves require a medium to propagate, while electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum.
What is a Mechanical waves?
A mechanical wave is a disturbance (an oscillation) that moves through a medium. The source transfers mechanical energy into the medium itself, and the medium propagates the energy of the wave. Examples are sound and an earthquake, and a tsunami.
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.
Waves that do require a medium are called?
Sound waves, they need a medium to vibrate.A2. Earthquake waves and other mechanical waves also need a medium for their transmission.Ghv. Tsunamis are a type of mechanical wave, which is the kind of wave you're looking for.
How does earthquake energy travel in seismic waves?
A seismic wave is a mechanical wave - similar to a sound. Basically, the energy of the wave is propagated by groups of atoms hitting into the next group of atoms.
What kind of wave is an mechanical wave?
A mechanical wave requires a medium to transfer the energy it carries, unlike EMR waves. There are several types of mechanical waves, most of them being found in an earthquake. Mechanical waves are all longitudinal waves.
Is a tidal wave a mechanical wave?
A tidal wave is a water wave so it is a mechanical wave.
Is an ocean wave mechanical wave?
Yes, an ocean wave is a mechanical wave, since the water is the medium of the wave.
Which earthquake wave is not a seismic wave?
the sound wave
What is the definition of seismic wave?
Seismic Waves - are mechanical vibrations that occur inside the Earth caused by the breaking of rocks.
What mechanical waves like sound water waves earthquake waves and waves in a stretched string propagate?
Mechanical waves like sound, water waves, earthquake waves, and waves in a stretched string propagate by transferring energy through the vibration of particles in the medium they travel through. As the wave passes, particles in the medium move back and forth in the direction of the wave, transferring the wave's energy from one particle to the next.
