An L wave, also known as a Love wave, is a type of surface wave that travels along the boundary between two different media, such as the Earth's crust and mantle. It causes the ground to move in a horizontal, side-to-side motion. L waves are the slowest seismic waves and are responsible for the long, rolling motion felt during earthquakes.
What else can I help you with?
What is the formula for wave steepness?
The formula for wave steepness is given as H/L, where H is the wave height and L is the wavelength. This ratio provides a measure of how steep or gradual a wave is as it approaches the shore.
Type of wave often called an L wave?
An L wave is a type of surface wave that moves in a horizontal, rolling motion during an earthquake. It is slower than other seismic waves but can cause significant damage due to its side-to-side motion.
Do Compressional waves move back and forth at a right angle to the direction that the waves travel?
Longitudinal waves have compressions and rarefactions, they move parallel to the direction of propagation Transverse waves have peaks and troughs, the mover perpendicular to the direction of propagation l l l l lll l l l l l l l l lll l l l l l lll l l l l l l lll l l - Longitudinal ...... ..... .... ...... ...... ..... ..... .... ..... ...... ..... .... .... - Transverse ..... .... .... .... .... ... .... ......
Formular of wave length?
Wavelength lambda is equated to the ratio of the speed of the wave to the frequency of the wave. So L = c / f Here L the wavelength, c the speed of the wave and f the frequency of the wave
What does the wavelength of a wave measures?
The width of the wave. The wavelength is the distance (in the direction of the wave's propagation) between the top of a wave crest to the top of the next wave crest. The wavelength is the frequency divided by the velocity of the wave. v=f/l l=f/v
What type of waves are there?
p-wave s-wave l-wave
What is the formula for wave steepness?
The formula for wave steepness is given as H/L, where H is the wave height and L is the wavelength. This ratio provides a measure of how steep or gradual a wave is as it approaches the shore.
What does the L stand for in L wave?
I can tell you the answer but I want it to be hard
What is the wavelength of wave if the distance between two consecutive crests is L?
Wavelength (m)=Wave speed (m/s) /Frequency (Hz)
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.
How does the speed of a light or sound wave be changed?
,,,l;.

What is fermi wave vector for one dimension box of length L?
N = 2k/(2pi/L) so k = pi.N/L
Which wave type is formed when the wave reach the earths surface?
L waves are formed when P&S waves reach the surface.
