What is the medium of propagation for earthquake waves?
Rock.
What is the medium of propagation of earthquake waves?
The Earth itself is.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
The frequency of a sound wave does not affect the speed at which the wave moves. The speed of sound in a medium is determined by the properties of that medium, such as its density and elasticity. However, frequency does impact the pitch of the sound we hear.
What is the disturbance that travels through a medium as a compressional wave called?
The disturbance that travels through a medium as a compressional wave is called a longitudinal wave. In this type of wave, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave's energy propagation. Sound waves are a common example of longitudinal waves.
What is an example of a tranverse wave?
An example of a transverse wave is a wave on a string when it is plucked or shaken. In this type of wave, the particles of the medium move perpendicular (sideways) to the direction of the wave propagation. This causes crests and troughs to form as the wave travels along the medium.
What are factors that affect its propagation along a medium?
Factors that affect the propagation of a wave along a medium include the density and elasticity of the medium, the wavelength of the wave, and the tension in the medium. Additionally, the temperature and pressure of the medium can also influence wave propagation.
What is the medium of propagation for earthquake waves?
Rock.
In activity 1 part c what is the medium of wave propagation?
In activity 1 part c, the medium of wave propagation is air.
What is the medium of propagation of earthquake waves?
The Earth itself is.
A disturbance that travels through a medium as a longitudinal wave is?
A disturbance that travels through a medium as a longitudinal wave is known as a sound wave. In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium oscillate parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Sound waves are an example of longitudinal waves as they require a medium, such as air or water, to travel through.
A wave is transverse if the vibrations in the medium are what?
Perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.
What type of wave is produced when the particles of the medium are vibrating to and fro in the same direction of wave propagation?
That would be a longitudinal wave. In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave propagation, causing compression and rarefaction as the wave travels through the medium.
What is a wave that requires medium for propagation?
Mechanical waves
Which kind of wave requires a medium for propagation?
A Sound wave, water wave, earth quake wave. Electromagnetic waves (radio, light, etc.) do not require a medium for propagation.
What is the medium of propagation of earthquakes wave?
Rock, soil, etc.
What happens to the medium when it is disturbed by a wave?
When a medium is disturbed by a wave, the particles of the medium begin to oscillate back and forth in the direction of the wave's propagation. This transfer of energy results in the wave moving through the medium.
What is longigtudinal wave and tranverse wave?
A longitudinal wave is a wave where the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of the wave propagation, like compressions and rarefactions in a spring. A transverse wave is a wave where the particles of the medium move perpendicularly to the direction of wave propagation, like the motion of a string being plucked.
