What else can I help you with?
How do glaciers flow?
glaciers move slowly but when theres alot of rain the water and the glaciers move faster
Can ocean waves move faster than wind?
No, ocean waves cannot move faster than the wind that generates them. Waves are a result of the energy transferred from the wind to the water's surface, so they generally travel at a speed proportional to the wind speed.
Why does sound travel faster in helium than in air?
Sound travels faster in helium than in air because helium is much lighter than air, which causes sound waves to travel more easily and quickly through it. The lower density of helium allows sound waves to move faster and with less resistance compared to air.
Is Primary wave the fastest wave?
i think so.. :/ Travel fastest through rock material causing rock particles in the rock to move back or forth
Is it true that surface waves move more quickly than p and s waves?
No, P and S waves travel faster than surface waves. P waves are the fastest seismic waves, followed by S waves, with surface waves being the slowest. Surface waves are responsible for most of the damage caused by earthquakes due to their amplitude and duration.
How much faster are light waves than sound waves?
About a million times faster
Do micro waves move faster than the radio waves?
Microwaves ARE radio waves, and they move with the same speed as all other electromagnetic waves.
What type of waves move faster than speed of light?
So far nothing is found to move at a faster speed than that of light.
Why sound waves faster than light waves?
they aren't, they are much much slower.
Do p waves or surface waves move faster?
No. Surface waves are slower than both P and S-waves.
How do glaciers flow?
glaciers move slowly but when theres alot of rain the water and the glaciers move faster
Can ocean waves move faster than wind?
No, ocean waves cannot move faster than the wind that generates them. Waves are a result of the energy transferred from the wind to the water's surface, so they generally travel at a speed proportional to the wind speed.
Do waves move faster in air or in water?
Waves generally move faster in water compared to air. This is because water is denser and provides more resistance to the movement of the wave, which results in faster propagation speeds. In contrast, air is less dense and offers less resistance, causing waves to move slower.
Do waves travel faster than S waves?
no p waves travel faster than s waves
Do light and sound both move in waves?
Yes, both light and sound can be described as waves. Light waves are electromagnetic waves, while sound waves are mechanical waves. They both propagate through a medium, although light can also travel through a vacuum.
Why does sound travel faster in helium than in air?
Sound travels faster in helium than in air because helium is much lighter than air, which causes sound waves to travel more easily and quickly through it. The lower density of helium allows sound waves to move faster and with less resistance compared to air.
What is different about the seismic waves?
The way seismic waves are different are that they're slower than the p waves who move a lot faster to reach the earthquake.
