What waves transfer from one place to another?
All waves can travel from one place to another as long as they have a medium to travel through. The only waves that do not need a medium are electromagnetic waves. When using the word "transfer" though. Waves transfer energy; waves themselves are not transfered they simply travel.
What are similarities between S-waves P-waves and surface waves?
they start at a earthquake.
What are the similarities between gamma rays and radio waves?
Both are electromagnetic waves.
What types of waves do mobile phones use?
radio waves.
Brain waves are present when you are awake?
Alpha waves :)
What factors help geologist determine earthquake risk for region?
The factors that help geologists determine for earthquake risk for religion are the movement of seismic waves along faults and friction.Hope this helped!
What three factors affect waves?
heat,wind and lunar position
What factors determine the amount of diffraction of light or spreading out of waves around corners of openings?
wavelength and diameter of aperture.
What natural resources are used to create tidal power?
2 factors determine the size of the waves:
What determine the size of waves?
The force and speed of wind will determine how little and big the waves are.
What factor help geologists determine earthquake risk for a region?
The factors that help geologists determine for earthquake risk for religion are the movement of seismic waves along faults and friction.Hope this helped!
What are three factors that create ocean waves?
wind speed, length of time the wind has blown, and fetch
The seismic waves of an earthquake are useful in determining?
The waves of earthquakes help us determine information about the interior of the earth. The more geologists know about the interior of the earth, the better they can predict earthquakes and other changes in the formation of the Earth's crust.
What two factors help geologists determine earthquake risk?
Geologists can determine earthquake risk by locating where faults are active and where past earthquakes have occured.
What factors determine the size of an ocean wave made by wind?
Waves are mechanical energy that has been transferred mostly from wind. The factors that determine the size of an ocean wave made by the wind are: time of contact, velocity of wind and the fetch-distance over which wind is in contact with water.
What three waves are shown on a seismogram?
The three waves that are shown on a seismogram in order are P waves, S waves, and surface waves.
Which two waves from an earthquake can triangulate the epicenter?
P-waves (Primary) and S-waves (Secondary). Using the difference in time between the arrival of P- and S-waves, you can then determine the distance from the epicenter. Once you've determined the distance from the epicenter of three different stations, you'll be able to triangulate the epicenter (the point where all three circles cross).
