A person located twice as far from the epicenter of an earthquake as another person will notice tat the time between the arrival of the primary and secondary waves will be?
Twice as long. The interval between the arrival of the primary and secondary waves doubles with every doubling of the distance from the epicenter due to the different velocities of the waves.
What are the two descriptive words for P in P Waves and the S in Swaves?
For P waves, the two descriptive words are Primary (or compressional) waves, while for S waves, the two words are Secondary (or shear) waves.
What does secondary waves and primary waves tell geologist?
