A body wave that can penetrate the earth's core?
p wave
What is the ECG wave that results from the depolarization of the ventricle?
the P wave
What kind of earthquake wave is purely longitudinal?
The P wave
What happens between the p wave and the s wave if the distance gets longer?
since the p wave is faster it will be ahead of the s wave even though they start at the same place.
Is p wave larger s wave surface wave or tsunamis?
Neither. P and S waves are body waves. Tsunamis are a different matter entirely.
Which is faster an s-wave or a p-wave?
P-Wave
What is a p wave?
A p wave is the primary or compression wave in a seismic wave. it's wavy
Is surface wave faster then a p wave?
no a p wave is faster than s wave
Which wave the p-wave or s-wave would arrive at seismometer afer the eatrhquake?
Both, first the P wave Then the S wave.
Which type of body wave always arrives after the P-wave?
The next type of seismic wave to arrive after the P-wave is the S-wave.
Which body wave is a longitudinal wave?
P wave .
What type of seismic wave that compresses and expands the ground?
Longitudinal Waves
What does P wave forms reflect?
A P wave reflects atrial depolarization.
Is a P-wave a seismic wave?
Yes. P-waves are known as primary waves and are a compressional or longitudinal wave.
What is the fasts wave?
They call it the Primary wave or a P-wave
What is a wave that does not appear to be moving?
Standing wave
How do rock particles move during the passage of a P wave through rock?
A P wave is a type of seismic wave that is caused by an earthquake. P waves are the first seismic waves felt during an earthquake. When the P wave moves, rock particles move back and forth along the direction of the P wave.
