What else can I help you with?
What do you call the center of a seismic wave?
The center of a seismic wave is called the focus or hypocenter. This is the point within the Earth where the seismic waves originate.
What is a wave of energy produced at the earthquake's focus?
therre is more than one wave, it could be a surface wave, or an s wave or p wave
The point directly above the focus of an earthquake is called the S wave?
This statement is incorrect. The point directly above the focus of an earthquake is called the epicenter, not the S wave. S waves are one type of seismic wave that travel through the Earth's interior during an earthquake.
Which type of wave causes the ground to shake in a motion parallel to the focus moving straight away from the epicenter?
The type of wave that causes the ground to shake in a motion parallel to the focus moving straight away from the epicenter is a primary (P) wave. P waves are compressional waves that travel through the Earth and are the fastest seismic waves. They are the first to be detected by seismographs during an earthquake.
These waves are slower than those that originate at the focus.?
Surface waves are slower than body waves like P-waves and S-waves because they travel along the Earth's surface instead of through the interior. Surface waves typically cause the most damage during an earthquake due to their combination of horizontal and vertical motion.

Where did the new wave of expression in movies originate?
The New Wave style of expression originated in Europe.
Where did the New Wave style of expression in movies originate?
The New Wave style of expression originated in Europe.
Where did the Mexican wave originate?
It first started in the 1986 World cup in Mexico. Hence the Mexican wave
What is a wave of energy produced at the earthquake's focus?

What waves are slower than those that originate at the focus?
The waves that are slower that those that originate at the focus are called secondary waves or S-waves. They are shear waves that are transverse in nature.
What seismic wave is the starting point?
focus
Is The point directly above the focus of an earthquake is called the S wave?
No, the point directly above the focus of an earthquake is called the epicenter. The S wave is one of the types of seismic waves that are generated during an earthquake and move slower than the P wave.
Where did the wave originate?
It first started in the 1986 World cup in Mexico. Hence the Mexican wave
These waves originate at the focus and can travel through all types of matter.?
P-waves, which may also be known as primary (as they arrive travel faster than other types of seismic waves and so are recorded on a seismometer first) or pressure waves as they propagate by the compression of matter.
How amplitude of a wave depend on the distance from focus?
amplitude of a wave depends on the intensity and goes on decreasing from its mean position
Where did the mexican originate?
It first started in the 1986 World cup in Mexico. Hence the Mexican wave
