What else can I help you with?
The first s-wave arrive at a seismograph station 11 minutes after an earthquake occurred how long after the arrival of the first p-wave did the first s-wave arrive?
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.
Is a earthquake s wave a transverse wave?
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.
What happens to the amplitude when the amount of energy in s wave increases?
When the amount of energy in an S wave increases, the amplitude of the wave also increases. This means that the S wave will have a greater maximum displacement from its resting position as it carries more energy.
What does a s wave look like?
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.
How far does a s wave travel in 22 minutes?
The speed of an S wave in the Earth's crust is typically around 3.7 km/s. In 22 minutes, an S wave would travel approximately 4884 km.
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.
What does the p in p stand for?
Primary Wave and the other is Surface wave (S wave) in case anyone is wondering. Both are part of earthquakes.
How do you use wave board?
Stand on it
What does the s in s-wave mean?
Surface Wave(:
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.
Which wave the p-wave or s-wave would arrive at seismometer afer the eatrhquake?
Both, first the P wave Then the S wave.
What does E in EM wave stand for?
EM waves stand for Electromagnetic waves.
What does RWF stand for?
Radio wave fequency....
Which is faster an s-wave or a p-wave?
P-Wave
Which kind of seismic wave cannot pass through water?
The S-wave.
Is an S Wave a Secondary Wave?
Yes
What does Cw stand for in cw laser?
Continuous-Wave
