Does the speed of lightning go up or down as it travels through the atmosphere?
The speed of lightning does not change as it travels through the atmosphere. Lightning travels at the speed of light, which is approximately 186,282 miles per second.
What type of earthquake wave can go through solids and liquids?
P-waves can pass through liquids,solids,and gases. A P-wave is a type of body wave that has an up and down motion. Another type of body wave is the S-wave. S-waves CAN'T pass through liquids but they can pass through solids and gases. I hope that answered your question. =)
Can earthquakes travel through liquids and solids?
Earthquakes can only happen in solids. Earthquake waves are a different matter:p-waves can travel through both solids and liquidss-waves can only travel through solidssurface waves (e,g, Rayleigh waves, Love waves) can only travel on the surface of solidsetc.
What type of seismic wave that travels through solids only?
Shear waves, also known as S-waves, are the type of seismic waves that travel through solids only. These waves move particles perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, causing the material to shear or deform.
What is water called that travels through soil and rocks?
Water that travels through soil and rocks is called groundwater. It is an important source of freshwater for drinking and irrigation.
Sound travels through the air or water or solids by?
sound can travel in all three media(solids liquid and gas)and travels fastest through solids.
What surfaces does sound travel through?
It travels best through solids
How does sound travel through solids liquids gasses?
In solids, sound travels through the vibration of molecules in a compressional wave. In liquids, sound also travels through compressional waves but with less resistance to movement compared to solids. In gases, sound travels through the propagation of pressure waves created by vibrating molecules.
What type of wave travels only through solids?
S-waves travel only through solids.
What surface does sound travel through best?
It travels best through solids
Can light travels through a solid?
Light travels through solids, but the extent to which it can pass through depends on the material. Transparent solids like glass allow light to pass through with minimal interaction, while opaque solids like wood absorb or reflect light, preventing it from passing through.
What type of energy travels as vibrations through solids liquids and gases?
Mechanical energy travels as vibrations through solids, liquids, and gases. This can take the form of sound waves moving through a medium.
How do sound travels through gas?
Compression waves (same as for solids & liquids).
Is it true that sound travels through solids but not though liquids and gases?
secret
Does sound travel slower through air solids or liquids?
Sound travels fastest through solids, followed by liquids, and slowest through gases like air. This is because the particles in solids are more closely packed together, allowing sound waves to travel more efficiently. In liquids, the particles are also closely packed but not as dense as in solids, resulting in slightly slower sound transmission.
How is the speed of sound affected by medium it travels through?
Sound is affected by the media. It travels high speed in solids generally.
What evidence is there that sound travels through solids?
Sound travels through solids because solids have molecules that can transmit vibrations. This can be observed in activities such as tapping a table and hearing the sound travel through it. Additionally, studies have shown that sound waves propagate faster in solids compared to liquids or gases.
