What are two other names for s waves?
Secondary waves and shear waves
What are two categories of seismic waves?
The two main categories of seismic waves are body waves and surface waves. Body waves can travel through the earth's inner layers, but surface waves can only move along the surface of the Earth.

What is two characteristics of body waves?
Body waves are seismic waves that travel through the interior of the Earth and are primarily classified into two types: P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves (secondary waves). One key characteristic of P-waves is that they are compressional waves that travel faster than S-waves and can move through both solids and fluids. In contrast, S-waves are shear waves that can only travel through solids, making them slower than P-waves and capable of causing more damage during an earthquake.
What are the three seismic waves in order?
The three types of seismic waves are: P waves S waves Surface waves ( two surface waves. Riley surface wave and love surface wave named after scientists
List and define the two types of mechanical waves.?
The two types of mechanical waves are transverse waves and longitudinal waves. In transverse waves, particles in the medium move perpendicularly to the direction of the wave's propagation. In longitudinal waves, particles in the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave's propagation.
Define the term sound waves?
Waves of sound.
Is visible a longitudinal or transverse?
Yes I guess the question is related to the visible light. The visible light is transverse in nature. One more important point is that the light waves are not mechanical waves. Mecahnical waves do need a material medium to get traversed. Sound waves are mechanical waves. But light being non mechanical and being electromagnetic it can pass even through vacuum.
What is the three energy for a electric saw?
IS electrical to mecahnical to heat
How do you define coherent waves?
The official definition for the word 'coherent waves' is "a superpositioned wave that does not interfere with other waves in the conductance pathway."
What is the exam time table for final year of mecahnical engg for pune university?
i needed it urgently
Define wave and its types?
a wave is a phenomenon that transfers energy, not matter. there are 2 types of waves: transverse e.g. light and longitudinal e.g. sound, seismic im not that good at physics, but that's the best i can come up with, sorry ^^;;
What is a wave describe its types and define them?
A wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium, transferring energy without transferring matter. The two main types of waves are mechanical waves, which require a medium to propagate (e.g., sound waves, water waves), and electromagnetic waves, which can travel through a vacuum (e.g., light, radio waves). Waves can also be classified as transverse waves (oscillations perpendicular to the direction of wave travel) or longitudinal waves (oscillations parallel to the direction of wave travel).
What two points define the shape of the ellipse?
The two foci are necessary to define the location of an ellipse, but the shape depends on the eccentricity, which is related to the lengths of the two axes.
What two characteristics define gymnosperms?
Two characteristics that define gymnosperms are that they do not produce flowers or fruits and do not pollinate
What are two examples of transvere waves?
Water waves and light waves.
What are the two sound waves called?
Longitudnal waves and Transverse Waves
