What evidence did scientists use to figure out Earths inner core is solid?
Scientists use the difference in density between the inner and outer core as evidence that the inner core is solid. This was proven using seismic waves traveling through the earth.
The seismic waves that travel through Earths interior are waves.?
body waves
How do you obtain indirect evidence about earths interior?
Seismic waves
Seismic shaking is a msasure of?
Seismic waves are the vibrations from earthquakes that travel through the earths surface and is measured bye the shaking you feel.
How does earths solid inner core affect seismis waves?
Earth's solid inner core influences seismic waves by acting as a boundary that alters their speed and path. P-waves (primary waves) can travel through both solid and liquid, allowing them to pass through the inner core, while S-waves (secondary waves), which can only move through solids, are reflected at the boundary between the liquid outer core and the solid inner core. This interaction creates distinct shadow zones where S-waves are absent, providing crucial information about the Earth's internal structure. Additionally, the properties of the inner core can lead to variations in wave velocity, aiding scientists in understanding the Earth's composition and dynamics.
How does earths solid inner core affect seismic waves?
They go faster through the inner core than the liquid outer core.
How does the structure of earths interior affect the wave speed and direction of seismic waves?
deflect

How do seismic waves form?
By the earths atmosphere

How does Earth solid core affect seismic waves?

How do seismic waves affect us?
Seismic waves affect us because they are what causes the motion from an earthquake that destroy buildings and such. The three types of seismic waves are surface waves primary waves also called P-waves and secondary waves also called S-waves.
What are seismic waves and what information information do they give about earthquakes?
Earthquakes are when the seismic plates on the earths crust move after pressure from on another is exceeded, seismic waves are produced after an earthquake, and can turn into a tsunami.
What is the point on earths surface where seismic waves are first felt?
This is known as the epicentre.
How do geologists use seismic waves to learn about earths?
Seismic waves are used indirectly I have a question for you is this from a chapter 9 science packet section one because I have the same.
