An S wave is a type of seismic wave that moves in a shearing, or side-to-side, motion. It typically travels slower than a P wave and is unable to pass through liquids. On a seismograph, an S wave appears as a series of sharp zigzag lines.
A longitudinal wave with a large amplitude will have higher peaks and lower troughs compared to a wave with a smaller amplitude. It will look taller in its oscillations and have more pronounced compressions and rarefactions.
A longitudinal wave is a type of wave where the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction of wave propagation. A common example is a sound wave, where the vibration of air molecules creates compressions and rarefactions that travel through the air.
The P-wave generally arrives before the S-wave during an earthquake. The time difference between them can help determine the distance to the earthquake's epicenter. In this case, if the S-wave arrived 11 minutes after the earthquake, you would need to calculate the time difference between the arrival of the P-wave and the S-wave to determine how long after the P-wave arrival the S-wave arrived.
A sound wave is represented by a series of compressions and rarefactions traveling through a medium. In a graphical representation, a sound wave appears as a wave-like pattern with peaks and troughs. The frequency of the wave determines the pitch of the sound, while the amplitude represents the volume.
Yes, an earthquake S-wave (secondary wave) is a transverse wave. It causes particles to move perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. S-waves are slower than the primary P-waves but can cause more damage due to their side-to-side motion.
The wave that is created by alternating current (the kind that is found in a standard wall socket) is called a SINE wave. It looks like the letter S when turned on it's side ( a horizontal S). It can be viewed on an instrument called an Oscilloscope.
they look like your mommy
The normal points in the direction that the wave is traveling.
If the wave can be turned into an electrical signal then an oscilloscope can be used to look at the wave pattern.
does it look like i know
in a heat wave your brain recoqnizes that its a "wave" of heat and then (because its dehydrated usually) imagines the image in a wave like form
Well is depends because i use wave Nouveau and it makes my hair straight and shiny.But they do have a curly wave Nouveau and that makes it look kind like a Jerry Curl but it works very well.
like a guitar sound!!!
It differs depending on who is saying it.
A tsunamis has a wave that is longer in length and looks like a fast rising tide rather than a traditional wave. A tidal wave is a wave that can reach as about a hundred feet tall and will look like a normal wave.
A longitudinal wave with a large amplitude will have higher peaks and lower troughs compared to a wave with a smaller amplitude. It will look taller in its oscillations and have more pronounced compressions and rarefactions.
