P waves bend while traveling through earths core and than arrive at the shadow zone?
P waves, or primary waves, are a type of seismic wave that can travel through both solid and liquid. When they reach the Earth's core, which is primarily liquid, they bend due to the change in density and material properties. This bending causes P waves to create a shadow zone on the opposite side of the Earth, where no direct P waves are detected, indicating the existence of a liquid outer core. The behavior of these waves provides critical insights into the Earth's internal structure.
What else can I help you with?
What is the moon passing through the earths shadow?
That would be a lunar eclipse.
P waves bend while traveling through Earths core and then arrive at the shadow zone?
P waves, or primary waves, are compressional seismic waves that can travel through both solid and liquid. As they move from the solid mantle into the liquid outer core, their speed decreases, causing them to bend due to the change in density and elasticity of the materials they encounter. This bending results in a "shadow zone" where no P waves are detected, typically located between about 104° and 140° from the earthquake's epicenter, indicating the presence of the liquid outer core. The shadow zone provides critical evidence for understanding the Earth's internal structure.
When p wave bend while traveling through earth's core what happen when arrive at the shadow zone?
When the P wave bends while traveling through the Earth's core, it changes speed and direction due to the difference in density between the outer and inner core. This bending causes a shadow zone on the opposite side of the Earth from the seismic source, where P waves are significantly weakened or not detected due to refraction and reflection within the core.

What are the two types of eclipse and explain?
Solar - moons shadow falls on earth.Lunar - earths shadow falls on moon.
What event is caused by the moon passing through earths shadow?
An eclipse

you see a eclipse

What happens durning a lunar eclipse?
The moon darkens because it passes through Earths shadow.
What eclipse passes through the earths shadows?
A lunar eclipse occurs when the full moon passes through the Earth's shadow.
P wave spend while traveling through Earth's core and then arrive at the shadow zone?
P waves travel through the Earth's core faster than S waves, causing them to slow down and bend as they pass through the outer core. This bending results in P waves creating a shadow zone on the opposite side of the Earth from the seismic event, where they are not detected by seismometers for a certain distance.
The moon experiences a total lunar eclipse when it passes through the earths shadow?
More specifically, a total lunar eclipse occurs when the moon passes through the umbra, the darker part of the shadow.
When p wave bend while traveling through earth's core what happen when arrive at the shadow zone?
When the P wave bends while traveling through the Earth's core, it changes speed and direction due to the difference in density between the outer and inner core. This bending causes a shadow zone on the opposite side of the Earth from the seismic source, where P waves are significantly weakened or not detected due to refraction and reflection within the core.
What shadow is bigger the Moon's umbra or earths umbra?
definitley the earths
When the earths shadow falls on the moon the shadow caused a?
A lunar eclipse.
Why is the moon's shadow clearer than earths?
It is not.
