What is another word for earthquake vibration?
Seismic waves is the usual description.
What is another name for earthquake waves?
Seismic waves.
Which seismic waves travel the fastest?
Primary waves (P-waves) are the fastest seismic waves and are the first to be detected after an earthquake. They are able to travel through solid rock, liquid, and gas, making them the fastest seismic waves.
S waves are longitudinal seismic waves?
This statement is incorrect. S waves are actually transverse seismic waves, meaning they move particles perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Longitudinal seismic waves are known as P waves.
What Movement of the faults produces which kind of energy waves?
The movement of faults produces seismic waves. When an earthquake occurs, it generates three types of seismic waves: P-waves (Primary waves), S-waves (Secondary waves), and surface waves. P-waves are the fastest and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases. S-waves are slower and move only through solids. Surface waves cause the most damage and travel along the Earth's surface.
Another word for seismic waves that characterizes the way they move?
P-Waves (Primary Waves) S-Waves (Secondary Waves) Surface Waves
What is another word for earthquake vibration?
Seismic waves is the usual description.
What is another name for earthquake waves?
Seismic waves.
Another word for an earthquake's strength is what?
Another word for an earthquake's strength is magnitude. Magnitude is a measure of the size of the seismic waves produced by an earthquake.
What are seismic waves and what information information do they give about earthquakes?
Earthquakes are when the seismic plates on the earths crust move after pressure from on another is exceeded, seismic waves are produced after an earthquake, and can turn into a tsunami.
Is seismic waves and earthquake waves the same?
Seismic waves are any waves that travel through the Earth. As such all earthquake waves are seismic waves, however not all seismic waves are caused by earthquakes.
What does seismic?
(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
Seismic waves that shear rock side to side are called?
seismic waves actually the correct answer is S waves. trust me if you put seismic waves it will be wrong
Who thought of seismic waves?
well it's a scientist. it first came from the word seismic. there was no wave added until an earthquake happened to cross the scientist who made the word seismic.
Kind of wave released during an wave?
During an earthquake, seismic waves are released. These waves travel through the Earth and can be detected by seismographs. The main types of seismic waves are P-waves (primary waves), S-waves (secondary waves), and surface waves.
What are seismic waves associated with?
Seismic waves are associated with earthquakes.
What two processes can affect the path of seismic waves?
Seismic wave reflection and refraction are the two processes that can affect the path of seismic waves. Reflection occurs when seismic waves bounce off a boundary between different materials, while refraction occurs when seismic waves change direction as they pass from one material to another with different properties.
