What else can I help you with?
What does seismic mean?
(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
P waves?
seismic waves that puch copmpress and pull in the diection thta waves travel
Earthquakes produce what that travel through earth?
Seismic waves
Do seismic waves need a medium to travel through?
Seismic, or earthquake waves travel through the earth. They may travel through our crust, which is rocky, or through the more fluid parts, like the mantle, but the medium is the earth.
What causes seismic waves to travel through layers of The earth?
By being cool.
What is is a seismic travel-time curve and how is it used to study earthquakes?
i only know that it is used to measure the distnace from the epicenter
What does the time-distance graph of seismic waves show?
The time-distance graph of seismic waves shows the relationship between the time it takes for seismic waves to travel and the distance they travel. It helps in determining the speed at which seismic waves propagate through the Earth's interior and provides information about the structure and composition of the Earth's layers.
What is a travel-time curve used for?
To measure the distance from the epicenter.
What does seismic?
(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
What does a time travel curve measure?
A time travel curve measures the relationship between time dilation and the velocity of an object moving through space. It shows how time is affected by speed, with faster speeds leading to slower passage of time due to relativistic effects.
In what diection does a seismic wave travel?
Seismic waves travel in all directins radiating out from the Earthquake's epicenter and/or focus.
What is a seismic trace?
A seismic trace is a graphical representation of seismic data collected during seismic surveying. It shows how the amplitude of seismic waves changes over time and can be used to identify subsurface structures like rock layers or hydrocarbon reservoirs. Seismic traces are essential in geophysics for interpreting subsurface geology.
What happens to the lag time as the distance from the epicenter increases?
As distance from the epicenter increases, the lag time also increases. This is because it takes time for seismic waves to travel through the Earth's layers and be detected by seismometers. The lag time can vary depending on the speed of the seismic waves and the distance they need to travel.
Where do seismic travel through?
the ground
What happens to seismic waves as they travel out from the epicenter?
They get weaker as they travel out from the epicentre
What does seismic mean?
(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
A travel-time graph can be used to find the?
The distance of an earthquake epicenter from a seismic station. Using the Three point method, the distance from 3 seismic stations are used to locate the epicenter by triangulation.
