What are the two types of body waves?
The two types of body waves are P-waves (primary waves) and S-waves (secondary waves). P-waves are compressional waves that travel through solids, liquids, and gases, while S-waves are shear waves that only travel through solids.
What are the two types of waves in radio waves and gamma rays?
The two types of waves in radio waves are AM (amplitude modulation) and FM (frequency modulation). In gamma rays, there are no different types of waves as they are all high-energy electromagnetic waves.
What are the different types of waves that are given off by the human body?
The human body gives off different types of waves, including electromagnetic waves such as infrared radiation and radio waves, as well as acoustic waves like sound waves.
What is the sub types of body waves?
The two subtypes of body waves are P waves (primary or compressional waves) and S waves (secondary or shear waves). P waves are the fastest seismic waves and can travel through solids, liquids, and gases, while S waves are slower and can only travel through solids.
What are two types of energy that travel in waves?
Take your pick: water waves, sound waves, electromagnetic waves, gravitational waves.
What are the two types of body waves?

What are the two types of seismic surface waves?
body waves and surface waves
What are two kinds of sesmic waves?
Two types of seismic waves are body waves (P-waves and S-waves) and surface waves (Love waves and Rayleigh waves). Body waves travel through the Earth's interior, while surface waves travel along the Earth's surface.
What are the 3 types of waves?
P-waves (Primary Waves) -- Body WaveS-waves (Secondary Waves) -- Body WaveSurface Waves (Rayleigh and Love)The 3 types of seismic waves are P waves, S waves and surface waves.
What are the main types of seismic waves are?
Body waves and Surface waves
The 3 types of seismic waves are what?
P-waves (Primary Waves) -- Body WaveS-waves (Secondary Waves) -- Body WaveSurface Waves (Rayleigh and Love)The 3 types of seismic waves are P waves, S waves and surface waves.
What are the two types of body waves and what do they mean?
The two types of body waves are longitudinal and transverse waves. In seismology longitudinal waves are known as P-waves (P = primary as they are detected by seismometers before the other seismic waves) and transverse waves are known as S-waves (S = secondary). In longitudinal waves the material oscillates or moves backwards and forwards parallel to the direction of wave motion (a bit like someone opening and closing an accordion). In transverse waves, the material oscillates normal (at 90 degrees) to the direction of wave motion.
What are the two types of waves?
The three types of seismic waves are:P waves, S waves, and Surface waves
What waves are produced by earthquakes?
Earthquakes produce "seismic" waves. These can be split into two main types: Body Waves and Surface Waves. Body waves consist of P-waves (compression or longitudinal waves) and S-waves (shear or transverse waves). P-waves can go through solid, liquid, and gas forms but S waves can only travel through solids. The P waves reach seismic stations quicker than S waves as they travel at a greater speed. Surface waves travel more slowly than Body waves and there are two main types: The Rayleigh and Love wave.
What are the two types of waves in radio waves and gamma rays?
The two types of waves in radio waves are AM (amplitude modulation) and FM (frequency modulation). In gamma rays, there are no different types of waves as they are all high-energy electromagnetic waves.
