secondary waves cannot travel through liquids
yes
Because the vibrations of both the waves travel parallel to the direction of propagation of waves. For eg: both the waves have amplitude, frequency etc.
Light waves travel faster than sound waves.
Electromagnetic waves (like light) don't require a medium for propagation, unlike mechanic waves (like sound).
Because in day time the ionisation is less in the D layer of the Sky. So it absorbs the medium waves because of its lower frequencies. In night time the D layer vanishes and the Medium waves travel towards the F layer and reflected back to the earth from a long distance. That's why Medium waves are clearly heard in night times from a long distance.
Primary seismic waves travel the fastest.

Primary waves (P-waves) travel faster than secondary waves (S-waves) through the Earth's interior. P-waves are compressional waves that can travel through solids, liquids, and gases, while S-waves are shear waves that only travel through solids.
Primary seismic waves are longitudinal waves. Longitudinal waves can travel through solids, liquids and gasses (although seismic waves are of to low a frequency to normally be heard). Secondary seismic waves are transverse waves and only travel through solids.
only faster not slower.
Secondary waves are transverse or shear waves which are able to pass through solids, but are not able to pass through liquids.
A secondary wave causes rocks to vibrate at 90 degrees. This earthquake wave can travel through solids but not through liquids, and causes rock particles to vibrate at right angles to the direction of wave travel.
Secondary waves, also known as S-waves, do not travel through the outer core of the Earth due to its liquid state. S-waves can only propagate through solid materials.
S-waves, or secondary waves, cannot travel through water because they oscillate perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Water lacks the necessary material properties (shear strength) to transmit these waves.
Secondary waves, or S-waves, require a medium with solid properties to propagate, as they involve shear deformation of the material. Liquids do not have shear strength, so S-waves cannot travel through them. As a result, S-waves cannot pass through liquids like water or magma.
No, secondary waves (S-waves) cannot travel through the Earth's surface. They are a type of seismic wave that move through the Earth's interior and cannot propagate in liquids or gases, making them unable to travel through the surface.
Surface waves, also known as Love and Rayleigh waves, do not travel through the core of the Earth. These waves move along the surface of the Earth and are responsible for the most destruction during an earthquake.
