Which type of wave is a secondary wave?
Any wave has two directions: the up and down direction (primary wave) and the side to side direction (secondary wave).
Which seismic wave does more damage primary wave secondary wave or surface wave?
Surface waves typically cause more damage than primary or secondary waves during an earthquake. They travel along the earth's surface and are responsible for the shaking that can result in building collapse and other structural damage. Primary and secondary waves, while important for seismologists to study, usually do not cause as much damage as surface waves.
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.
What is known as a seismic sea wave?
A seismic sea wave is commonly known as a tsunami. It is a series of ocean waves generated by a sudden displacement of the ocean floor, typically caused by an underwater earthquake, volcanic eruption, or landslide. Tsunamis can travel long distances across the ocean and cause widespread destruction when they reach land.
What are the 2 subtypes of surface wave?
well one is a water Waves, that i know for sure and the other is rope Waves, pretty sure but i could be wrong about that one
What is secondary wave?
The S-wave is the secondary seismic wave.
Which type of wave is a secondary wave?
Any wave has two directions: the up and down direction (primary wave) and the side to side direction (secondary wave).
Is an S Wave a Secondary Wave?
Yes
What wave is called the secondary wave?
primary
What does the s stand for in s waves?
S-wave stands for : Secondary wave. It comes after the P-wave and goes before the L-wave.
Distinguish between a primary wave and a secondary wave?
A primary wave is a strong vibration or wave that hits earths surface (P) and a secondary wave (S) is a wave that hits soon after but not nearly as big.
Wave that produces the most surface damage?
A secondary wave!
What type of wave indicates a secondary wave?
The term used in seismology is the S-wave.
Is she wave sentence or fragment?
"She wave." is fragment but "She waves" is a sentence.
What are the 3 seismic waves?
i)surface wave ii)primary wave iii)secondary 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.
What are the four kinds of waves that travel through the earth involved with earthquakes?
The Primary wave, the secondary wave, the surface wave, and the seismic wave
