A seismic body wave that can penetrate the Earth's core is called a P wave (Primary wave). P waves are the fastest seismic waves and they can travel through both solid and liquid layers of the Earth, including the core.
P waves are seismic body waves that can penetrate the Earth's core. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through both solid and liquid materials, allowing them to pass through the Earth's core.
Surface waves, specifically Love waves, can travel through liquids. Love waves are a type of surface wave that occurs on the surface of solids, liquids, and gases.
Movement in the earth's crust, as in earthquakes.
There is no seismic wave that can only pass through the Earth's mantle. However S-waves can not travel through earth's outer core because it is a liquid.
liquid
Mechanical waves (like seismic waves) will travel faster through a solid than a liquid.
Primary waves (P-waves) are the seismic waves that can travel through both solid and liquid materials. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through the Earth's interior, passing through both solid and liquid layers.
why can s-wave can't travel but p-waves can
S-Wave. They are not able to travel through the liquid outer core.
Seismic waves travels faster through solid rock than water because their speed depends on the density and composition of material that they pass through.Solid rock is denser than water, hence the energy from seismic waves transfer faster through solid rock than in water.
A body wave is a seismic wave that travels through Earths interior.
Since an earthquake or seismic wave is a pressure or force wave (like sound waves), it requires a material in which to propagate. So, no earthquake waves can travel through a vacuum.
The velocity of seismic waves is controlled by the density and elastic properties of the material through which they travel. Solids tend to have larger elastic modulii than fluids. As the speed of a seismic wave increases as the elastic modulii increase, this means that they tend to travel faster through solids.
(not seismic, seismic wave)Seismic waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth.
If you mean Earth's interior, only longitudinal waves can pass through the liquid parts.
