What type of wave travels faster through solids than it does through gases?
Seismic waves, such as primary (P-waves) and secondary (S-waves), travel faster through solids than through gases. This is because solids have a higher density and rigidity, allowing the waves to propagate more quickly.
Which type of material does sound waves travel through fastest?
Sound waves travel fastest through solids because the particles are closest together, allowing the waves to propagate more efficiently.
Which type of wave travels slower through gases than it does through solid?
pressure waves longitudinal waves
Which type of wave travels slower through gasses than it does through solids?
Sound waves travel slower through gases than through solids. This is because gases have lower density and stiffness compared to solids, which affects the speed of sound waves traveling through them.
What is the sub-type of seismic waves?
The sub-types of seismic waves are primary (P) waves, secondary (S) waves, and surface waves. P waves are the fastest seismic waves and travel through solids, liquids, and gases. S waves are slower than P waves and only travel through solids. Surface waves are slower than both P and S waves and travel along the Earth's surface.
What type of wave travels only through solids?
S-waves travel only through solids.
Can earthquakes travel through liquids and solids?
Earthquakes can only happen in solids. Earthquake waves are a different matter:p-waves can travel through both solids and liquidss-waves can only travel through solidssurface waves (e,g, Rayleigh waves, Love waves) can only travel on the surface of solidsetc.
What type of earthquake wave can go through solids and liquids?
P-waves can pass through liquids,solids,and gases. A P-wave is a type of body wave that has an up and down motion. Another type of body wave is the S-wave. S-waves CAN'T pass through liquids but they can pass through solids and gases. I hope that answered your question. =)
Waves can travel in?
This depends on the type of wave. Some examples are.Electromagnetic wave, Through almost anything.Sound waves, through matter.Compression waves through solids, liquids and gases.Transverse waves through solids only.
What type of seismic wave that travels through solids only?
Shear waves, also known as S-waves, are the type of seismic waves that travel through solids only. These waves move particles perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation, causing the material to shear or deform.

Seismic waves, such as primary (P-waves) and secondary (S-waves), travel faster through solids than through gases. This is because solids have a higher density and rigidity, allowing the waves to propagate more quickly.

What type of seismic wave can travel through both liquids and solids?
P-waves
Which type of siesmic waves can travel throgh solids but not liquid?
Shear waves can travel through solids, but they cannot travel through liquids. Shear waves are a type of seismic wave that shakes particles perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. This makes them unable to propagate through liquids, which do not have the necessary shear strength to transmit these waves.
