Do mechanical waves travel faster in solids or liquids?
Mechanical waves involve the physical transfer of vibration from one particle to another within the medium. Denser materials (solids and liquids), have closer particles so this transfer of energy occurs more quickly. :)
What is the definition of a primary and secondary seismic waves?
Primary wave- (P-waves) travel through solids liquids and gas. push/pull or compress waves. They travel faster and arive at seismic stations first. Secondary waves-(S-waves) travels ONLY through solids. moves side to side. Gets to the seismic stations second. I hope that helps!!
Do sound waves particles move fast though a solid?
Yes, they do. Sound waves move fastest through solids, less fast through liquids, and slowest through gasses. This is because the molecules of solids are closer together, while those of gasses are further apart, creating more space that the waves must jump to move.
