What is the biggest seismic wave?
The biggest seismic waves are surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface and are usually the most destructive during an earthquake. The two main types of surface waves are Rayleigh waves and Love waves. Rayleigh waves cause the ground to move elliptically in vertical and horizontal directions, while Love waves cause horizontal shearing motion.
Which type of body wave always arrives after the P-wave?
The next type of seismic wave to arrive after the P-wave is the S-wave.
A body wave that cannot travel through liquids is?
A body wave that cannot travel through liquids is the S wave, also known as a shear wave. S waves are unable to propagate through liquids because they require a solid medium in order to transmit energy. P waves, on the other hand, can travel through both solids and liquids.
A body earthquake wave the can penetrate the Earth's core?
Body earthquake waves that can penetrate the Earth's core are known as primary waves, or P-waves. They are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through both solid and liquid materials, including the Earth's inner core.
Which wave is a body wave?
A body wave is a seismic wave that moves through the interior of the earth, as opposed to surface waves that travel near the earth's surface. P and S waves are body waves. Each type of wave shakes the ground in different ways.
What is the definition of Pwaves?
A Pwave is the first wave to arrive during an earthquake, P waves compress and then expand. They can damage buildings.
What part of the ECG records atrial contraction?
ECG records electrical activity and not mechanical, hence it has nothing to do with contraction. But P wave represents atrial depolarization.
What are the three categories of seismic waves?
p wave comes first s wave comes next and last comes surface wave.
What is the biggest seismic wave?
The biggest seismic waves are surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface and are usually the most destructive during an earthquake. The two main types of surface waves are Rayleigh waves and Love waves. Rayleigh waves cause the ground to move elliptically in vertical and horizontal directions, while Love waves cause horizontal shearing motion.
Which body wave is a longitudinal wave?
The primary body wave that is a longitudinal wave is the P-wave (primary wave). It is the fastest seismic wave and travels through the Earth's interior by compressing and expanding the rock in the direction of the wave's propagation.
What type of wave is P wave?
Body Waves
What is a body wave that can pentrate the earth?
P-wave
A body wave that can penetrate the earth?
p wave
The wave produced by a vibrating body in air is?
transverse wave
A body wave that can penetrate the earth's core?
p wave
What is the fastest moving earthquake wave?
The P-wave which is a form of body wave known as a compression or longitudinal wave.
Which body waves is a longitudinal wave?
The primary body wave that is a longitudinal wave is the P wave. P waves are compressional waves that travel through solid and liquid materials by causing particles to move in the same direction of wave propagation.
