What is a type of wave that travels through earth's interior?
A seismic wave is a type of wave that travels through Earth's interior. These waves are generated by earthquakes or other disturbances and can be classified into two main types: body waves which travel through the Earth's interior and surface waves that travel along its surface.
What is a wave of energy released from an earthquake?
A wave of energy released from an earthquake is called a seismic wave. Seismic waves can be classified into body waves, which travel through the Earth's interior, and surface waves, which travel along the Earth's surface. These waves are responsible for causing the ground shaking and damage associated with earthquakes.
The seismic waves that travel along Earth's surface and produce the most severe ground movements are called .?
Surface waves-Ava :)
Which seismic wave travels the slowest?
Surface waves, Secondary waves, Primary waves :) I had this as a science question in school a few weeks ago... hope this helps :) Oh whoops i didnt log in so i did it again.... :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
Surface Waves?
waves that travels only on the surface
Do seismic waves travel along earths surface?
Yes, Surface waves, a type of seismic wave, travels along the surface, or appears to, as it loses energy exponentially as it goes away from the surface.
What kind of waves can travel through earth and along earths surface?
Seismic waves are the types of waves that can travel through the Earth and along its surface. There are two main types of seismic waves: body waves (such as primary and secondary waves) that travel through the Earth's interior, and surface waves (such as Love and Rayleigh waves) that travel along the Earth's surface.

Example of surface wave?
One example of a surface wave is a water wave on the surface of the ocean, which is created by the wind transferring energy to the water. These waves move across the surface rather than through the water column. Another example is a Love wave, a type of seismic wave that travels along the Earth's surface during an earthquake.
What is a type of wave that travels through earth's interior?
A seismic wave is a type of wave that travels through Earth's interior. These waves are generated by earthquakes or other disturbances and can be classified into two main types: body waves which travel through the Earth's interior and surface waves that travel along its surface.
What kind of wave travels only along earth's surface?
A surface wave, such as Love waves or Rayleigh waves, is a type of seismic wave that travels only along Earth's surface. These waves move in a horizontal, rolling motion, causing both side-to-side and up-and-down vibrations. They are responsible for the most destructive shaking during an earthquake.
What is the significance of the love wave in understanding seismic activity?
The love wave is a type of surface seismic wave that travels along the Earth's surface and is important in understanding seismic activity because it can cause significant ground shaking and damage during earthquakes. By studying the characteristics of love waves, scientists can better understand the behavior of seismic waves and improve earthquake prediction and hazard assessment.
What travels along a surface separating two media?
A wavefront travels along a surface separating two media, commonly referred to as the interface between the two media. This wavefront carries the wave's energy and characteristics, such as frequency and amplitude, from one medium to another. Examples include light waves traveling between air and water, or seismic waves moving from rock to soil.
What do you call seismic waves that are transmitted along the outside of the earth?
surface waves
What travels along the outside of the earth?
surface waves
What best describes a surface wave?
A surface wave is a type of seismic wave that travels along the Earth's surface and is responsible for the most damage during an earthquake. It moves in a rolling motion, similar to waves on the ocean, and has a slower velocity but a larger amplitude compared to body waves.
